Description
Church Cottage is a house dating from the 17th to early 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of coursed rubble limestone and features a stone slate roof. The building has rubble stone chimneys on the left and center, with shafts that were rebuilt in the 20th century using white brick.
The house is two storeys high with an attic and consists of two main bays plus a central stair bay. The ground floor has 20th-century two-light wooden casements with crossed glazing bars. The right window features a moulded lintel from the 16th or 17th century, which may have been reused, adorned with zig-zag and dentil ornament. On the first floor, there are 20th-century three-light casements without glazing bars, but they retain old chamfered lintels. Centrally located on the first floor is a tall late 19th to early 20th-century three-pane sash window, likely serving as a stair window.
The roof has two gabled dormers with small-paned two-light casements, connected by a half-glazed door with a wooden lintel. The right gable end, which faces the road, also features wooden casements in their original openings with wooden lintels, along with a single-storey extension that has a board door and flanking casements. At the rear, there is a lean-to, and the building has an old double purlin roof.
