Description
Lower Cottage is a house in a row, dating from the late 17th century and altered in the 20th century. It is constructed of dressed limestone and features a tiled roof with concrete tiles at the front, along with brick stacks at the gable ends and coped verges. The building is two stories high and has two windows. The front door, which is from the 20th century, is located to the left of center and has a flat wooden hood, accessed by stone steps. On either side of the door are three-light steel casement windows. The first floor also has two three-light steel casements. There is a gabled wing at the rear. The interior was not accessible during the survey conducted in December 1985.
