Description
Pleckspool Cottage is a 17th-century house that has been divided into two dwellings. The building features large timber framing on the left and center, with painted brick infill, while the right side is entirely of painted brick. It has a slate roof and includes a brick stack at the right end and a ridge stack at the center. The structure is two stories high and consists of a five-bay range. There are two plank doors located at the center, and the windows are an irregular arrangement of 19th-century casements. A gabled half-dormer is positioned to the right of center. The interiors have not been inspected.
