Description

Avenue Cottage, dating from the early 19th century and earlier, is located on Hillside Street. The front elevation, which is early 19th century, features two storeys constructed of stone rubble with brown brick dressings and quoins. The roof is tiled, and there are three sash windows, although some glazing bars are missing. The cottage has a modern porch, bay windows, and an addition at the east end. The west front, which faces the passage leading to the church, is likely older and connects to an outhouse, with the north-west corner walls in Oak Walk being medieval. To the south of the cottage is a medieval masonry wall, part of a network of such walls that define the boundaries of gardens and plots of land around the Parish Church of St Leonard.
