Description
White Cottage is a small cottage from the early to mid 19th century, possibly with earlier origins. It is timber-framed and covered with weatherboards, featuring a brick stack and chimney shaft, and has a peg-tile roof.
The cottage has a one-room plan and faces north, with a right (west) gable-end stack. It is two storeys high with attics and has lean-to outshots on the left side and across the rear.
The exterior includes a front doorway on the left, which contains a late 19th-century four-panel door with a shallow timber hood. To the right of the doorway is a contemporary horned four-pane sash window, and on the first floor, there is an earlier 19th-century sixteen-pane sash window. The outshot on the left has a separate front doorway with a plank door and a small window with glazing bars to the left, both of which are from the 20th century. The main block has a gable-ended roof, and the attic is lit by a tiny fixed four-pane window at the left end. The roof extends down to the rear over the outshot.
This cottage is notably complete for its small size.
