Description
Clarence Cottage is an early 19th century Regency-style detached cottage located at the end of Clarence Place in Penzance. The building is rendered in stucco and has a slate hipped roof. A notable feature is the wide eaves soffit over a trellised verandah, which extends to the first floor on two sides of the house. The cottage is two storeys high and has three windows, with two two-storey splayed bays that project through the verandah. These bays contain large casement windows with glazing bars. A doorway is situated on the side of the property. Clarence Cottage, together with numbers 1 to 6 and Clarence Terrace, forms a visually cohesive group.
