Foundry Cottage

Foundry Cottage is a house from the early 17th century, formerly known as Wakeners. The main entrance front has two storeys and features five irregularly placed windows. It includes an off-centre compound stack with a cornice and a flat modern dormer set in a high-pitched tiled roof. The first floor is tile hung, displaying both banded plain and fishscale patterns. The ground floor is made of narrow red brick on a malmstone block foundation, with later red brick quoins and dressings. There is a modern pent porch and a small oriel bay, along with two early 19th-century sash windows that have glazing bars. The left return wall consists of large galleted malmstone blocks, topped with a few courses of very narrow bricks. At the rear, there are two modern but visually appropriate gable-ended extensions. On the right return, there are two small three-light windows featuring brick mullions and hoodmoulds, with fixed leaded lights—one original and the other a copy.
