Description
Cherry Orchard is a house dating from the late 17th century, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed of squared, coursed ironstone and features a steeply pitched roof covered with 20th-century tiles. The left gable is adorned with stone coping and a moulded kneeler. The building has stone and brick stacks at the ridge and ends.
The house has a four-unit plan and stands two storeys high, plus an attic, with a four-window range. The entrance is located on the left and is accessed via 20th-century stone steps, leading to a 20th-century door. To the left of the door, there are two small square windows with wood lintels, two 20th-century windows with wood lintels, and a three-light stone mullioned window that features a hood mould and label stops.
On the first floor, there is a two-light stone mullioned window with a hood mould and label stops, along with three 20th-century windows with wood lintels. A gabled dormer is present, and the left gable includes a two-light stone mullioned window with a hood mould and label stop, a three-light casement window in a stone framed surround with a hood mould and label stop, and a three-light stone mullioned cellar window. The interior has not been inspected. This building is included for its group value.
