Description
Lanouthnoe Cottage is a house with an integral coach house and stable, dating from 1859. It is constructed from granite and elvan rubble with granite dressings, and features grouted scantle slate roofs. The house has a half-hipped roof, while the rear wing has a hipped end and a gable end on the single-storey building to the left. Brick chimneys are located over the side walls of the house and the axial wall of the rear wing, and there are cast-iron ogee gutters.
The overall plan is L-shaped, with a double-depth layout that includes two equal-sized front rooms and a through passage between them. A dairy is located behind the left-hand room within an integral two-storey outshut, while a stair hall is situated behind the right-hand room, leading to a kitchen in a deep wing at right angles. Behind the kitchen is an integral stable with a room above, and a coach house with a fodder store above it is located behind the stable. There is also a later 19th-century single-storey addition to the left-hand side of the house.
The exterior is two-storeys high and features a symmetrical three-window south-east front with a central doorway. The 19th-century door has marginal panes in the glazed upper half. The original 12-pane hornless sash windows are present, as well as original sashes on the first floor of the rear, and the coach house and stables retain their original ledged doors, including a loading doorway above the coach house doorway and a shuttered window above the stable.
Inside, the cottage retains most of its original carpentry and joinery, including a dog-leg stair with an open string.
