Description
Astley House, comprising The Cottage and numbers 5 and 6, is a group of three cottages built around 1840. The cottages are constructed of limestone ashlar, with Welsh slate roofs to numbers 5 and 6, and concrete tiles to the roof of The Cottage. They have brick stacks. The cottages are two storeys high, with a four-window arrangement. Number 5 has a recessed porch with a 20th-century door, shared with the adjacent property at number 4. Number 6 has a door with four fielded panels. The Cottage has a 20th-century planked door, and original cast-iron boot-scrapers are situated beside the doors. The ground floor has three 12-pane sash windows. The first floor has four 12-pane sash windows. Rear gabled wings with hipped roofs and sash windows extend from the main structure. The interiors were not accessible for inspection in January 1986.
