Ferryman'S Cottage

Ferryman's Cottage is a house built around 1800, likely based on designs by Repton, originally serving as the ferryman's residence for the Antony Ferry across the River Lynher. The building is constructed from slatestone rubble, arranged in courses with larger stone blocks for banding, while the rear wall is rendered. It features a hipped slate roof with deep eaves supported by paired brackets and a central stack with a shaped top.

The cottage has a two-room plan, with the left room having a splayed corner and an entrance through a porch on the left end. The right room was originally a boat house and includes a winder stair at the back. To the right, there is a single-storey integral room for services, which may have originally been an outbuilding. The building stands two storeys high with a splayed front, where each bay is recessed to the centre and features segmental heads with rubble pilasters and plain cornices.

The left front bay includes a porch with a hipped roof, a side door, and a four-pane light at the front. On the first floor, there is a two-light horizontal sliding sash window with six panes in each light, topped with stone flat arches. All windows are of this type, with eight-pane lights on the ground floor. The right side of the building has two bays, with a window on both the ground and first floors in the left bay. The right bay is wider and has a cambered stone head with impost blocks from a former opening for a boat, with the imposts extended as a string course across the bay, now featuring a two-light eight-pane horizontal sliding sash window on the first floor.

To the right, there is a single-storey service wing with a hipped roof, which has a 20th-century door and a single light to the right, along with a three-light eight-pane casement to the left. A segmental stone head remains in the centre from a former door opening. Additionally, there is a single-storey rubble outhouse with two doors attached to the end on the right. Inside, the front room has shutters on the windows, and the winder stair at the rear features main column balusters and stick balusters. The cottage is part of the Antony Estate.
