Long Cottage The Old Long House

The Old Long House and Long Cottage are two attached cottages built in 1765. They are constructed from coursed limestone rubble and topped with a stone slate roof. The buildings are two stories high with an attic, featuring five window bays on the first floor and four on the ground floor. The cottages have a panelled door, and the windows are 19th-century timber casements, with four-pane sashes on the gable end. Each cottage has a single-storey forward extension. There are gable stacks and a stack on the party wall, which has a datestone inscribed with the initials TMC and the year 1765.

Long Cottage has a 20th-century front range, while the Old Long House includes a two-storey forward extension. Originally a furze house, the Old Long House had become a blacksmith's shop by 1858 and was raised to two storeys in rat-trap bond in 1861 for use as a workshop. The openings facing the road have lintels that are now blocked. The initials on the datestone belong to Richard Carter, who incorporated a bakehouse within the building. In front of the cottages, there is a flagstone wall along the road.
