Description

Knights Cottage is a house from the mid-19th century, built in the Georgian tradition. It has two storeys and features three windows. The exterior is constructed of red brick with alternating grey headers, topped by a tiled roof. The windows are fitted with venetian shutters and retain their glazing bars. On the ground floor, there are two modern curved bay windows, with a doorway located between them. This doorway is framed by a fluted architrave surround and has a flat hood supported by brackets.
