Description

A cottage dating from around 1780, derelict at the time of survey. The walls are rendered to resemble masonry over a brick core, with an old tiled roof. It is a two-storey building with one window. The first floor has a 12-pane sash window within a moulded architrave, while the ground floor has a 16-pane sash window. A cambered doorcase leads to a plank door. Inside, there is a central straight flight staircase, a wooden fireplace, four-panelled doors, and a cupboard.
