Description

Bosveal Farm Cottage is a farm workers' cottage that includes garden walls and a gate-pier at the road and entrance fronts. It has datestones from 1929 and the initials P.D. The walls are made of Killas rubble, and the roof is covered with Delabole slate laid in diminishing courses, featuring sprocketted eaves. There is a large central rubble axial stack.

The cottage has an unaltered rectangular plan with three rooms along the garden front: a parlour on the left with a small room behind it, a scullery in the middle with an entrance and stair hall behind, and a full-depth kitchen/living room on the right, with a pantry in a single-storey wing set back at the rear right-hand corner.

It is two storeys high, with bedrooms mostly in the roof space, which are lit by gable end windows and dressed granite dormers at the front and rear. The symmetrical south garden front features three windows, with a square central window opening and taller flanking window openings. The windows have flush granite sills and slate voussoirs to cambered arches, and the original horned sashes include glazing bars.

There is a central lead-roofed dated dormer that is segmentally headed and has coping with a ball finial, with a similar dormer at the rear to light the stair. The left-hand gable end, facing the road, is symmetrical and has integral battered buttresses with dressed granite weatherings on either side of the ground floor. It features two ground floor windows and one window central to the gable, with deeply set reveals and flush granite sills that have rounded corners. Other elevations are also complete and unaltered.

The central rear doorway has an original oak door. Inside, the cottage has a simple interior with most of its original features, including oak doors.
