Description
Ochre Cottage and the attached stable date from the mid-18th century. The building is constructed from regularly coursed ironstone rubble and features a hipped thatched roof with brick ridge stacks. The house has a two-unit plan and stands two storeys high with a three-window range. The entrance, located to the right, has a renewed plank door set in a moulded wood frame, topped by a gabled hood. To the left of the entrance, there is a 2-light and a 3-light metal casement window in wood frames, along with a blocked doorway. On the first floor, there is a single-light window and two 2-light metal casements, all in wood frames. The windows feature wood lintels and wrought-iron casement fasteners. The stable, located to the left, has a stable door with a wood lintel, single and 2-light fixed windows on the ground floor, a loft door above, and a 2-light casement window with lead cames and crown glass. The interior has not been inspected.
