Bake Cottage

Bake Cottage, consisting of three attached houses, likely began as a single dwelling, probably built in the 18th century and extended in the early 19th century. The houses are constructed with stucco over rubble walls, and have asbestos slate roofs. The front section has a hipped roof, while the rear wing has a hipped roof to its right side. A rendered axial stack is located on the left, and a later brick stack on the right. The layout is a double-depth plan under a parallel roof, with an angled wing to the front on the right, built into a steep slope at the rear. The taller rear range is also prominent. The main house section on the left has a two-window front, with segmental arches over the ground-floor windows. It features 20th-century 12-pane 2-light casements and a 20th-century glazed entrance door. The projecting wing on the right has a central, early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash window. The right-hand return displays the side wall of the front wing, the gable end of the main range, and the hipped end of the rear wing, also featuring an early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash window to the left of centre. The interior has not been inspected.
