Description

The Manor Cottage is a semi-detached cottage dating from the late 18th century. It is built of Flemish bond brick with stone dressings and features a 19th-century Bridgwater tiled roof with gable end brick stacks. The cottage is two stories high and has three windows. The central entrance is a 20th-century glazed door set within a chamfered architrave, topped by a flat stone hood supported by brackets. On either side of the door are three-light beaded mullioned casements. There is a plat band at the first floor level, with three-light beaded mullioned casements flanking a central single-light casement. An attached garage is located on the right side of the cottage. The interior has not been inspected.
