Ruckley Cottages

Ruckley Cottages, originally three cottages but now two, date back to the 17th century with an early 19th-century addition on the right side. The building features coursed rubble walls, wooden lintels, and stone slate roofs, supported by four brick stacks on stone bases. It is positioned at right angles to the road. The south front showcases the 17th-century section on the left, which is two storeys high and has a mix of two and three-light casement windows, a central plank door, and a right-hand gable that extends through the eaves line, featuring a small bull's-eye window for the loft. The 19th-century addition also has two storeys and similar casement windows. Inside the 17th-century section, there is a chamfered beam in the left-hand ground floor room, a staircase niche, and an inglenook fireplace on the west wall. The right-hand room contains another chamfered beam and a circular newel staircase.
