The Head Gardener'S Cottage

The Head Gardener's Cottage is a gardener's or bailiff's house built around the mid-19th century. It is constructed from granite rubble with granite dressings and features a hipped scantle slate roof with projecting eaves, along with a lean-to scantle slate roof over the verandah. Brick chimneys rise from the side walls. The house has a two-room plan with a central entrance hall, an open verandah at the front, and an enclosed section on the left side. There is also a later 19th-century kitchen wing at right angles behind the right-hand room.

The exterior is two storeys high, with a symmetrical three-window east front and a central doorway. The original Gothic style door is flanked by two-light casements that have Gothic style heads. An open verandah runs in front of the house and returns at either side, supported by wooden posts over a granite kerb. The original skylights above the ground floor windows feature lead-sheathed glazing bars. The interior has not been inspected.
