Description

Livingstones is a cottage dating from the 18th century, with early 19th-century alterations and a 20th-century extension to the rear. It is constructed of sarsen stone with brick dressings and features a thatched roof. The building is two storeys high and consists of two bays, with a single-storey, one-bay extension to the right. There is a central 20th-century enclosed glazed porch. The cottage has 19th-century three-light casement windows that are topped with cambered brick arches. A brick stack is located on the left gable, and the building has a half-hipped roof on the right side. The extension also features a half-hipped roof. Above the porch, there is a datestone that reads E F 1813.
