Description

Marsh Cottage is an early 19th-century villa that stands two storeys tall and features a double-fronted design with three windows. The roof is hipped and covered with Welsh slate, complemented by brick stacks. The exterior is constructed of grey brick with red brick dressings. Notable architectural details include gauged flat red brick arches above the recessed sash windows, which are fitted with glazing bars. The entranceway is distinguished by a doorway that has a console-bracketted cornice, a rectangular fanlight with margin lights, and a panelled door.
