Description
The Court is a pair of cottages, likely originally outbuildings, dating from the 18th century. They feature rubble stone walls and stone slate roofs, with stone stacks at the ends and in the center. The cottages are two storeys high and have three ledged doors, one of which is set in a moulded stone surround, while another doorway is blocked. On the ground floor, there are four 2-light mullioned windows, and the first floor has six similar windows, all fitted with lead lights.
