Description
Swiss Cottage is an estate cottage built in the mid-19th century. It features coursed rubble-stone walls and slate roofs with boxed eaves and ornamental barge-boards. A white brick stack is located on the north ridge. The building has an L-plan layout, with a projecting square bay gabled on the west elevation and a porch entrance on the north gable wall. It stands two storeys high and has three windows on the west elevation, which have straight-chamfered stone mullions and cast-iron casements set in a lozenge pattern. The windows include a three-light arrangement on the ground floor and a two-light arrangement above, both with returned labels. The porch at the north end has a gabled slate roof with bargeboards, stone-moulded jambs for the door, and a rib-panel door with two top lights, dating from the 19th century.
