Description

Ravenscourt Cottage is a late 18th-century L-shaped building located on the north-east side of Brent Hill in Davington. It is a single-storey structure with a hipped tiled roof and a front made of red brick. The cottage features one sash window and has a doorway to the right, situated before a passageway that leads to an adjoining outbuilding. The south wall of the cottage is incorporated into the wall that encloses Raven's Court. Ravenscourt Cottage is part of a group of listed buildings that includes Davington Priory, the walls and postern gate of the Church of St Mary Magdalene, Priory Road, and Rose Cottage on Davington Hill.
