Description
Church Cottage is a house located at the end of a row in Wyke Regis, dating from the mid to late 18th century. It is built of fine red brick in Flemish bond with rendered returns and features a steep tile mansard roof. The house is slightly set back from the street and has a shallow street range with a gabled parallel rear range to the left.
The building is two storeys high, with an attic and basement, and has a symmetrical front with three windows. Above the 12-pane sash windows, there are two flat-roofed dormers, also with 12-pane sashes, set in moulded flush boxes with thin wood sills. The central entrance features a six-panel door with a plain transom light, flanked by pilasters that support a deep frieze and cornice.
A small plinth made of Portland ashlar runs across the front, and there is a painted stone cornice band with paired brick dentils below a blocking course and a coped parapet. Each gable has a brick stack, with the right gable being plain. The rear of the house includes a prominent square oriel window with sashes. The interior has not been inspected.
