Description
House adjoining Box Tree Cottage is a building that dates from the early 18th century and the late 18th to early 19th century. It is constructed of random marlstone rubble and coursed limestone rubble, topped with a Welsh-slate roof and featuring brick stacks. The layout likely consists of two main units plus a single unit, which have now been combined. The house stands two storeys tall. The larger section, which is the older part, includes a three-light casement window situated between two doorways, along with three first-floor windows, two of which are raised into half dormers. The left doorway features a 19th-century stone porch. The lower coursed-rubble bay to the left has two casement windows on the ground floor, one of which was formerly a doorway, and a leaded two-light casement window on the first floor; all openings are topped with flat arches. There are stacks located to the left of the centre on the higher roof and on the gable of the lower roof. Inside, there is a large segmental-arched fireplace that is partly blocked. The building is included for its group value.
