Description
Cornish Arms Cottage is a house originally built as a detached structure in the 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. The exterior features pebbledash over a timber frame, with string courses on the front and a dry slate hipped roof that has a wide front gable on the right side. There is a large rubble stack at the rear. The building has a single-depth plan that has been extended to a double-depth layout, with a probable parlour wing extension on the left and an early 19th-century wing at the rear left.
The cottage has two storeys plus an attic on the right side and an irregular two-window range. The windows are from the 20th century. A late 19th-century gable-fronted open porch with a shaped bargeboard leads to a late 19th-century four-panel door. On the first floor of the right-hand return, there is a rare original single-light round-arched window made from a single piece of oak. The left-hand return of the front range is blind, while the wing features an early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash window in the centre of the first floor and a doorway with a ledged door on the right. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
