Mudgeon Cottage

Mudgeon Cottage is a farmhouse dating from the early 19th century. It features painted walls with dressed granite quoins and sills, as well as shallow brick arches. The roof is hipped and covered with asbestos slate, with slightly projecting eaves that sweep lower over an integral rear outshut, and brick chimneys located on the side walls. There is a hipped asbestos slate roof over a later wing on the left and a scantle slate roof on the adjoining outbuilding to the right.

The cottage has a double depth plan that is two rooms wide, with a central through passage. The kitchen living room is on the left, and the parlour is on the right, with a dairy located behind the kitchen. The stair hall is at the rear right of the middle, and there is a pantry behind the parlour. The cottage was extended later in the 19th century with a double depth wing on the left and an outbuilding, possibly a shippon, on the right.

It is two storeys tall and has a nearly symmetrical three-window south front, plus a later one-window wing on the left and an outbuilding that is slightly set back on the right. There is an additional original window opening on the ground floor between the left-hand window and the nearly central doorway. The front door is a four-panel design with later glazing in the top panels and features a 20th-century porch. The original windows are hornless sashes, each surrounded by a border of marginal panes with diagonal corner bars, containing 12 panes in the middle. The rear of the cottage is completely unaltered and retains its original windows. The mid-floor stair window resembles the front windows but is taller. There is a 12-pane sash beside the doorway, while the other windows consist of two-light small pane casements. The dairy window on the ground floor right has horizontal glazing bars on the left-hand light and a wooden shutter on the right-hand light. The interior has not been inspected. The design of Mudgeon Cottage is very similar to that of Boskenna in St Martin, featuring the same style of sash windows and the extra window to the left of the doorway.
