Description
Lavender Cottage is a house dating from the early to mid 19th century, with alterations in the 20th century. It is constructed of squared elvan stone rubble with stone dressings. The roof is covered in bitumenised slate, with ridge tiles and gable ends. A gable end stack, with a brick shaft, is located on the right side. The original plan consisted of a single room, with an entrance to a passage on the left and the room itself to the right, heated by a gable end stack. A shallow rear outshut was added later. The front of the house has two storeys and one window. To the right, a 20th-century 16-pane sash window is set within a cambered stone arch. To the left, a 20th-century panelled door is set within a flat stone arch. The right side of the building is blind. The interior has not been inspected.
