Description
The Cottage is a late 17th-century house that was altered in the late 19th or early 20th century. It is constructed of coursed squared marlstone with a concrete plain-tile roof and brick end stacks. The building follows a two-unit through-passage plan. It has two storeys plus an attic. The front elevation has a symmetrical arrangement of three windows, with shorter sash windows, the central bay being narrower above the entrance. All openings are surrounded by 20th-century rusticated render. To the right of the doorway is an ashlar scraper recess. The steep-pitched roof has gable parapets. Inside, there are chamfered spine beams, an inglenook fireplace with a chamfered bressumer, a winder stair from the first floor to the attic, and 17th-century trusses with principals crossing at the apex.
