Lime Tree Cottage

Lime Tree Cottage is a farmhouse, now a house, likely built in the late 18th century, with an early 19th-century addition at the rear and some remodelling from the mid-19th century. It features uncoursed limestone rubble with alternating angle quoins and a stone slate roof that has deep verges and 19th-century purlin ends. The building is arranged in an L-plan, consisting of a main range and the early 19th-century addition to the rear on the left. It is two storeys tall with an attic and has three windows, which are early 20th-century three-light casements (with a two-light window in the centre on the first floor) set in 18th-century openings. The central entrance has a 20th-century glazed door, and there are gabled dormers in the roof slope on both sides. Internal features include end stacks with dripstones and red brick shafts. Inside, the repositioned staircase in the stone-flagged entrance hall has bobbin balusters and newels. The left ground-floor room contains a moulded plaster spine beam and an inglenook fireplace with a chamfered wooden lintel. The right room has a moulded plaster cornice and a chamfered spine beam. The first floor features a moulded plaster cornice in the landing area, and the attic contains 19th-century roof trusses.
