Description

Gordon Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring a plain tile roof that is hipped to the south and half hipped to the north, with a central chimney. The building is constructed of brick, using grey headers and red stretchers. On the north elevation, there is a three-light casement window with a cambered head under a brick arch, and a two-light casement window in the attic. The west elevation includes a modern extension to the right, creating an L-shaped plan, with two windows: a three-light casement to the right and a small vertical sliding sash to the left, with a door located below.
