Description
Lime Tree Cottage is a house dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of brick and features a hipped slate roof. The building has two storeys and a cellar, with a chimney on the right side and two additional chimneys on the rear slope. The front facade consists of three bays, with sash windows that have bare glazing set in architrave surrounds on the first floor. The ground floor has similar sash windows, but the central bay contains a six-panelled door beneath a wood lattice porch with a concave lead roof. There is also a traditional sash window on the right side of the ground floor.
