Shute Cottage

Shute Cottage is a house that underwent remodeling around the mid-19th century, likely based on a structure from the 17th or early 18th century. It is built from rendered stone rubble and cob, topped with a cement-washed rag slate roof featuring gable ends and three gabled dormers on the front. The building has projecting stone rubble chimney stacks with brick shafts on the gable ends. The layout may consist of three rooms with a through passage, and a rear outshut was added in the 19th century, with further remodeling in the 20th century.

This two-storey house has an asymmetrical front with three windows. On the ground floor, there are two tall, possibly 19th-century, two-light casements on the far right and left, both with glazing bars. To the left of center is a 20th-century part-glazed door, and to the right of center is a 12-pane shop window. The first floor features three symmetrically placed 19th-century gabled half-dormers, each with a 19th-century two-light casement that includes glazing bars and crown glass, as well as fish-scale slate hanging in the gables. The interior includes a wide through passage with slightly chamfered ceiling beams, although only the passage has been inspected.
