Description
Sunningvale Cottage is a farmhouse that likely dates from the 18th century. It is constructed from killas rubble, featuring some dressed granite quoins, jambstones, and lintels. The roof is made of corrugated asbestos, with a rubble stack on the left gable end and a rendered stack on the right gable end. The building has a plan that includes two original rooms at the front, with a larger room, probably a hall or kitchen, on the left and a parlour on the lower ground to the right. There is a lobby and presumably a stair between these rooms, along with service rooms in a likely later single-storey lean-to at the rear. The exterior is two storeys high and has a nearly symmetrical three-window front facing southwest, with a doorway that is nearly central but slightly grouped towards the right. The door is an old ledged type, while the windows are late 19th or 20th-century horned sashes. The interior has not been inspected.
