Description
No. 15 is an 18th-century detached cottage located in Knook village. The cottage is constructed of rubble stone with a thatched roof, featuring gable end brick stacks. It presents a gable end to the lane. The cottage is two storeys high and has a single window facing the lane. A flat-roofed porch was added in the 20th century to the left of the entrance, and there is a two-light casement window on both the ground and first floors of the main cottage. The right return side of the building has no windows and a blocked segmental-headed opening on the ground floor, which may have been a former bread oven. The rear of the cottage features a three-light and a two-light wooden casement window to the left, and a three-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement window to the right-hand bay; the ground floor is dressed with limestone, while the first floor is constructed of Flemish bond brick. A three-light casement window and a three-light casement within an eyebrow dormer are also present on the rear. The interior was inaccessible at the time of survey.
