Description

Ivy Cottage is a 17th or 18th century, two-storey cottage built from local stone with coursed rubble walls. It features a thatched roof, with the eaves swept up over half-dormers. The doorway is topped with an 18th-century hood supported by shaped brackets, and the door itself has nine flush panels. There are two ranges of wooden casement windows, each with hoodmoulds.
