Description
Flint Cottage is a house that likely dates from the late 18th century. It is constructed of knapped flint with brick dressings and has a plain-tile roof from the 20th century that is hipped to the left, along with brick stacks at the ends. The building is two stories tall and features a two-window range. The central entrance has a plank door with a segmental brick head and a flat hood above it. On either side of the door are three-light wood casements with segmental brick heads and leaded lights. The first floor also has three-light wood casements with leaded lights. A dentil course runs along the eaves. The interior has not been inspected.
