Description

Myrtle Cottage is a house dating from the early 18th century, with a 19th-century extension on the left. It has a rendered exterior, likely over brick, and a Welsh slate roof, along with an old plain-tile half-hipped roof on the cross wing to the right. The building is two stories tall and has a four-window range. There is a plank door located to the right of the center, which is sheltered by a 20th-century gabled porch. All window openings feature two-light casements. The right return shows large timber framing, with some replacement timber and rendered infill. The interior has not been inspected. Myrtle Cottage is included for its group value.
