Description

Archway Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century, built of rendered rubble stone with stone tiled roofs. The cottage features a one-and-a-half storey design with a double front. It has two-light recessed cyma-moulded mullion windows with leaded lights, each with hoodmoulds above, arranged on either side of a central door that is set in a gabled porch. There are two dormer gables on the roof. At the rear, there is a curved stair projection, and to the west end, there is a one-storey range also covered with stone tiles. To the right, extending from the east end wall over Park Lane, is a timber-framed and plastered room with a stone tiled roof and one window on the south front, which may have served as a gatehouse to the Manor estate.
