Description

Commander England Limited is an early 19th-century cottage constructed from granite rubble with a stuccoed first floor. It features a corrugated asbestos roof and stands two storeys tall. The building has two sash windows with glazing bars, although the ground floor windows have been replaced by fixed-light plate glass display windows for an antique shop. A central glazed door provides access. This building is included for its group value, as it forms a group with Fairmaids Cottage and No 12 Keigwin Place.
