Description
St Olaf's Cottage is a cottage with probable origins in the 17th century. It features a whitewashed exterior that is partly rendered and partly plastered. The roof is slate and gabled at both ends, with a brick chimney located at the left gable end. This small, single-depth cottage has two storeys and a one-window front. The central entrance is a 20th-century front door set beneath a timber lintel. To the left of the front door is a 20th-century two-light casement window with glazing bars. There is a similar window in a raking dormer on the first floor. Additionally, the ground floor has a two-light casement window with leaded panes located in the right gable end. The cottage has its gable end facing the street and is adjacent to Pudners, where it was historically used for servants.
