Description

Quarry Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, with 20th-century extensions. The front of the cottage is whitewashed pebble, with colourwashed brick return walls and dressings. It has a low-pitched, hipped slate roof and rendered end stacks. A plat band runs above the ground floor, and there are block-rusticated angle piers to the ends. The first floor has outer plate glass sash windows set within block-rusticated brick surrounds, each with a cambered head. A central, leaded, two-light casement window with an ogee-arched head, also in a block-rusticated brick surround, is located on the first floor. Two similar windows are located on the ground floor, and a door sits centrally beneath an ogee-arched head. The right-hand return front features ogee-arched casement windows on both floors, with a four-panel door under a similar head on the ground floor. A hip-roofed extension is present on the corner, with further extensions to the rear.
