Description
The Little Cottage in Hallagather is a cottage dating from the 17th or 18th century, with a single-storey addition from the 20th century at the right gable end. It is constructed of whitewashed slatestone rubble and cob, topped with a roof of stone slates and gable coping stones at the left gable end. The building is one room deep and two rooms wide, featuring a projecting stack at the right gable end and an off-centre entrance that leads into a stair hall. The cottage has two storeys and a two-window range. The off-centre porch is made from three single slates. The ground floor windows are 20th-century casements with slate sills and drip ledges, while the first-floor windows are similar casements with slate sills, with renewed windows at the rear. There is one first-floor window under a raking roof that projects slightly above the eaves line. The ground floor fireplace retains a wooden fireplace beam.
