Birchwood Cottage

Birchwood Cottage is a 17th-century house with a single pile lobby entrance. It is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and features a tiled roof with external brick chimneystacks at either end and a fishscale tiled gable on the left side. The house has two storeys and attics, with four windows that contain 19th-century casements in their original openings. There are two 19th-century gabled dormers with fretted bargeboards and a gabled weather porch from the same period. A brick platband runs along the building.

The rear elevation includes casements, one of which has marginal glazing, a large 19th-century wooden dormer with a triple casement, and a lean-to with a tiled roof. Inside, the left side room features an open fireplace with a wooden bressumer, a coved overmantel, and exposed floor joists. Both fireplaces have seat recesses and salt stores, and the floors are brick paved. There is a winder staircase, and the internal partitions consist of tongue and groove vertical panels.
