Description
The Cottage is a house dating from the late 18th century, with some 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of flint and brick, topped with a steep slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three windows. The roof is half-hipped, and there is a frame in the north gable. The walls are made of horizontal flint panels, with brick quoins and bands, and the south side is rendered above a flint base. The windows are casements. There is a late 19th-century rustic porch with a slate roof, which has a four-panelled door, two of which are top-glazed. Additionally, there is a two-storey flat-roofed rear addition from the 20th century.
