Description

The Cottage is an early 19th-century building that stands two storeys high and features three windows. It has a tile roof with a catslide at the rear and tapered stacks at each end. The walls are made of red brick laid in Flemish bond with blue headers, and there are cambered openings on the ground floor. The north gable shows some exposed timber-framing. The windows have been replaced with modern casements, and there is a boarded door set in a solid frame beneath a tiled open porch.
