Description

The structure was later converted into three cottages, but Top Cottage and Middle Cottage have since been demolished, leaving Bottom Cottage transformed into two dwellings. This building dates from the 18th century and features two storeys with four windows. The exterior is stuccoed, and it has a tiled roof with casement windows.
