Description

Cedar Cottage and Old Cedars are two attached cottages that were formerly a farmhouse, dating from the mid-17th century. They feature rubble stone walls with dressed stone quoins and have concrete tile roofs, which are lower on Old Cedars. The right-hand cottage has stone gable copings. There are renewed brick stacks on the left-hand gable and on both gables of Cedar Cottage. The buildings are two storeys tall, with the left-hand cottage being lower. There are a total of five windows, including three 3-light stone mullions on the ground floor, which have ovolo, ovolo, and cavetto profiles, along with separate labels above and stone cills. The windows have wooden casements and glazing bars. The front doors include a plank door in the gable outshut of Old Cedars, which is a 20th-century addition, and a 20th-century wooden door with a pediment on Cedar Cottage, located away from the main access.
