Description

No. 7 is a single cottage that was formerly two separate cottages, built in 1843. The building features coursed limestone walls and a thatch roof with gable ends, along with a half outshut at the rear of the south end. There are stone stacks with moulded cornices on the gables. The cottage is 1½ storeys tall and has four windows on the ground floor and three on the first floor. The ground floor windows are arranged as three, two, two, and three light wood casements with glazing bars and wooden sills. The ground floor also has gauged and flared stone voussoirs. Above, there are two light eyebrow dormers. The front door, which is now located on the south gable wall, is made of wood and glass and dates from the 20th century.
