Description
Spyehole Cottage is part of a short terrace of houses located in Weymouth, built around 1840. The terrace features Flemish bond brickwork on No.12, while Nos 11 and 13 are rendered. The houses have low-pitched slate roofs that are hipped at the left end. They are two storeys tall with an attic and each has one window. Originally, there was a first-floor bowed oriel, but the three properties have been modified in various ways.
No.11 has no dormer light and features a shallow 8:12:8-pane oriel above a 12-pane sash window, with a door leading to a throughway on the left and a 6-panel door on the right. No.12 has 16-pane sashes set on concrete sills and a 6-panel flush door. No.13, known as Spyhole Cottage, has a faceted oriel with small-pane 2-light casements with a transom, a 16-pane sash, and a 6-panel flush door. There is a brick chimney stack for No.11 and a shared stack for Nos 12 and 13. The interior has not been inspected. These modest early cottages were built slightly before the rest of the terrace (Nos 2-10) and offer fine views to the north over the roofs of Trinity Road.
