Description
Angrouse Cottage, formerly known as Angrouse Farmhouse, is a farmhouse dating from the early 18th century. It features whitewashed stone rubble walls with upper sections made of cob, topped by a wheatreed thatched roof that has a hipped end on the east and a half hipped end on the west, along with two brick chimneys. The layout includes a hall on the east side, a kitchen and pantry on the west, a dairy at the rear, and a staircase in a wing projection at the back. The right side has a store, and the west wing may be an earlier part of the house.
The building is two storeys tall and has an asymmetrical three-window front. The south facade has a projection on the left, which is single-storey and shares the same roof slope. It features an 8-pane horizontal sliding sash window beneath a slate hood mould, with a 20th-century 4-pane top hung window to the right. The entrance door, also from the 20th century, is located at the angle of the projecting bay and the main front, accompanied by a 20th-century white plastered open porch with a sloping slate roof. To the right, there are two additional 8-pane horizontal sliding sash windows. The first floor has a small 4-pane horizontal sliding sash window above the entrance, along with two 8-pane horizontal sliding sash windows to the right. The roof extends over the store on the right, which has been converted into a garage with 20th-century double timber doors and six square dove holes above. A brick chimney is positioned on the ridge to the left of the east hipped gabled end.
The north front features a single-storey stone rubble extension from the early 19th century on the right, also with a slate roof. The staircase projection is illuminated by a 4-pane horizontal sliding sash window. The west front has a ground floor 4-pane horizontal sliding sash window in the centre with a slate hood above, and the first floor has two 4-pane horizontal sliding sash windows. Inside, there are bead moulds on the thin ceiling beams running across the house, and the staircase has early 18th-century flat shaped fretted balusters (some removed in the lower part), square newels with a moulded rail, and a closed string. The visible roof timbers have been replaced. According to Chesher, the house dates from the late 17th to early 18th century.
