The Old Cottage

The Old Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with a mid-19th century extension on the right end. The building features galleted sandstone on the left side with brick quoins, while the right side has rendered cladding and a dun-coloured brick front facing the street, accented with red brick dressings. It has steeply pitched plain tiled roofs and a T-shaped plan. The entrance front is located to the left at a right angle to the main street. The left side is one storey with an attic, featuring a gabled casement dormer, while the right side has two storeys in a gabled wing. There is a large ridge stack on the left. The windows are arranged irregularly; there is one two-light casement window between the floors to the left of centre, a 20th-century casement window on the ground floor to the left with a blocked window nearby, and two casement windows, one on each floor of the gabled bay on the right. A boarded door is situated at the junction of the wings within a flat-roofed porch supported by thin pillars. On the right-hand return front, there is one cambered head casement window on each floor, both under gauged brick keystoned heads. The rear left features double gable wings at right angles.
