Description

The Old Toll House is a cottage, likely built in the late 18th century. It is constructed of coursed rubble and features a tiled, gable-ended roof with stone stacks at each end. The building stands two storeys high and has three irregularly placed windows. The windows are two-light casements with diamond-pane leaded lights set in iron frames. The front door has been blocked, and access to the house is now from the side.
