Bell Cottage

Bell Cottage is a probable 18th-century building that was originally two cottages, later converted into a single house. It is constructed of rendered and painted stone rubble and cob, with a roof covered in bitumen-coated rag slate, featuring half-hipped ends. A central brick stack provides ventilation for the two original rooms, and a small, unheated service room to the rear is contained within an outshut. A pigsty was added to the rear of the outshut in the 19th century, and a further outshut was added across the front of the left-hand cottage around the same time.

Originally, the front of the building presented a symmetrical two-window facade. However, the addition of a 19th-century outshut to the front of the left-hand cottage obscures the original elevation. The right-hand cottage retains a 19th-century 16-pane sash window with crown glass on the ground floor, along with a 19th-century 2-light casement window on the first floor. There is also a 19th-century door situated on the right-hand side of the outshut.

Inside, the fireplaces have roughly cut timber lintels, and the ceilings feature 19th-century timber beams. The roof structure includes roughly chamfered feet to the principals.
