Description
Magdalen Farm Cottage is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 17th century, with an early 18th-century cross wing. It was restored in the 1960s. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled stone slate roof with a stone gable end stack. The layout consists of a one-unit outshut plan with a left cross wing. The late 17th-century section has two storeys and two windows, with timber lintels above a 20th-century door and casements, and an outshut at the rear. The left wing contains 20th-century casements. Inside, there are stop-chamfered and chamfered beams, a 20th-century bressumer over an open fireplace with inglenook seats, and collar-trusses in the early 18th-century range, although the butt purlins have been removed. The cottage was built for the Perry family.
