Description
Norway Cottage is an 18th-century building that was restored in the 20th century. It is constructed from colour-washed coursed rubble and features wood lintels, topped by a slate hipped roof. The cottage has two storeys and two windows with irregular spacing. The windows are 20th-century double-hung sashes with glazing bars. There are two doorways: one on the ground floor at the end of the facade and another centrally located halfway up the facade, accessed by a steep flight of granite steps. Norway Cottage and No 3 are part of a group of buildings.
