Description

The Cottage is an 18th-century house, extended in the 20th century. It is constructed of limestone rubble with wooden lintels, and has a concrete main-tile roof with rubble and brick end stacks. The building follows a three-unit plan, with an added bay. The front has three windows. A 20th-century stone porch is located to the left of centre, with two two-light casement windows to the right and one to the left. Similar casement windows are present on the first floor. An added bay to the left incorporates a garage door. A stack to the left of the earlier range features a rubble base. A brick chimney projection supports a stack on the right side. Further casement windows are at the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
