Description

May Cottage is an early 18th-century house located in Buckland. The construction utilizes coursed limestone rubble with brick quoins and brick surrounds to the openings. It is topped with a Welsh slate roof. The building originally comprised two units, now presenting a three-window facade. A 20th-century timber lintel and brick jambs frame the front door, which is accessed via a circa 1975 gabled porch. The windows are eight-pane sashes with timber lintels and brick jambs, and there are two gabled roof dormers with two-light leaded casements. The roof is gabled, with gable end stacks; the stack on the right side was remodelled in the mid-20th century. A single-storey, gabled dairy block from the early 18th century is attached to the left of the front facade. Internally, the cottage features mid-19th-century four-panelled doors, panelled shutters and a plain stone fireplace in the room to the left. A two-storey, half-hipped block, with lean-to extensions to the rear constructed in matching materials, completes the property.
