Description
Halton Quay Cottage is a house dating from the early to mid-19th century, with some later alterations. It is constructed of slatestone rubble with brick dressings and has a slate roof featuring ridge tiles and gable ends. The house has an external gable end stack on the right with a rubble shaft and an axial stack on the left with a brick shaft.
The layout consists of a three-room plan, with a larger room on the right that is heated by the gable end stack. The entrance is off-centre to the left through a porch, and there are two smaller rooms on the right heated by back-to-back fireplaces from the axial stack.
The exterior is two storeys high and features a symmetrical four-window front. All windows are 20th-century replacements, consisting of two-light, six-pane casements with brick segmental heads. The porch, which has a pitched roof, is centrally located between the windows and includes a single light at the front and a door on the side. On the right end, there is a two-light casement with a brick segmental head at the first floor. The interior has not been inspected.
