Description
West Cotlands is an early 19th century single-storey cottage, constructed with weatherboarding. It features a half-hipped clay tile roof and an external chimney breast with a tall stack at the northeast end. The front elevation has two windows and a central doorway, which contains a ledged door flanked by sash windows, each with four panes. The southwest gable is also weather-boarded and includes a small sash window in the attic. The rear elevation is weather-boarded up to the cill level of the right-hand sash window, which is four panels wide, while the area above is rendered. The northeast gable has a small sash window in the attic and weather-boarding above a later brick outshut that extends southeast to the external chimney breast. This building is depicted on the 1840 Ordnance Survey map.
