Sunnyside

Sunnyside is a house and adjoining cottage, likely built in the 18th century. The structure features rendered and painted rubble and cob walls, with slate sills and wooden lintels. It has scantle slate roofs that slope slightly lower to the rear, with gable ends. The adjoining gable end of Cranford Cottage is on the left, and there are brick chimneys towards the rear of the party gable and over the middle of the right-hand gable. The building has a double depth plan, with two rooms at the front of the house on the left and a one-room wide cottage on the right. The house includes a central cross passage. Due to the steep slope of the ground to the right, the house appears to have three storeys or two storeys over a basement on that side. There is a raised paved approach to the doorway from the left.

The overall front of the building has three windows on the northwest side, with a slightly irregular two-window arrangement for the house on the left and a one-window cottage on the lower ground to the right. The house features a central doorway with a four-panel door that has been later top-glazed. To the left of the doorway is a wide window opening with three lights, including a nine-pane left-hand light, which may indicate that this room was used for spinning or as a shop. The other windows have two lights and are typical late 18th to early 19th century horizontal sliding sashes with glazing bars, including a basement window to the right of the ramp in front of the doorway. The cottage has a top-glazed four-panel door on the left, with a 16-pane horned sash window on the ground floor and a 20-pane horned sash window on the middle of the first floor. Although the interior has not been inspected, it is said to retain some original features. In front of the house, there is a stone-paved ramp with a wrought iron balustrade. Sunnyside is part of a group of little altered houses arranged around a village square, which is an unusual feature in Cornwall.
