Kent Cottage

Kent Cottage is a house built in 1844 by Thomas Ellis Owen. It is constructed of stuccoed walls with a Welsh slate roof, featuring a low-pitched pyramidal roof to the east tower block and a rendered stack on the right side of the north-facing entrance. The building comprises three storeys and three bays, with a two-storey and attic wing to the west. The east block has horizontal rustication on the ground floor. The central north-facing entrance features a four-panelled door with a blinded fanlight, set within a two-storey projection with a facing gable. A four-pane casement window is located on the first floor above the door. The projecting west wing, also with a facing gable on the right of the entrance, has a two-light, sixteen-pane casement window on the first floor, set in a moulded architrave. The east tower block has a two-light, twenty-pane casement window on its left side. The first floor of the tower block features a bricked-up window opening with a moulded sillband course, moulded architrave, frieze, and cornice, along with a panelled apron below. Two small, two-light casements are present on the second floor, also with a sillband course. The eaves are boxed. The left return of the tower block, facing Queen's Crescent, is similar to the north face, with a twelve-pane sash window on the ground floor and a two-light, sixteen-pane casement on the first floor. The right return of the west wing has a two-storey tripartite canted bay window with a frieze and coped parapet. The interior of the property has not been inspected.
