Park Cottage Park House

House, now divided into two dwellings. The origins of the house lie in the early 14th century, with alterations in the 17th and 18th centuries. Further extensions and subdivision occurred in 1985. The external walls are of squared coursed ironstone, and the roof is steeply pitched with Welsh slate tiles. Brick stacks rise from the ridge and from the front roof pitch on the left side. Originally designed with a three-unit plan, the house now has a front of 1 bay on the right and 4 bays overall, with the left bay added in 1985 and forming Park Cottage with the second bay from the left. The main entrance on the right side of Park House features a panelled-glazed door and a wooden lintel. To its left is a three-light metal casement window set within a stone surround, accompanied by a hoodmould with a label stop. Further to this is a three-light casement, followed by a two-light casement, and a board door leading to the left bay (Park Cottage). On the first floor are four two-light wooden casement windows. The rear elevation includes a 14th-century pointed-arch stone doorway, a three-light stone mullioned window to its right, and two blocked small windows to the left, the upper of which has an ogee head. The interior originally consisted of a hall and service rooms, divided by a through passage. A 14th-century doorway in the passage on the right was likely moved from the front of the house. An inglenook fireplace is present in the room on the left of the entrance passage. The house features stop-chamfered beams. In the former left-hand gable wall, now within Park Cottage, is a blocked two-light pointed-arch window with plate tracery and a hoodmould constructed from whitish stone. The house was once owned by the Cope family.
