Description
The White Cottage is an early 19th century thatched cottage located on Cotmaton Road. The original part of the building is a single storey, finished in stucco, and features two Gothic-style casement windows, each with two lights and diamond glazing. To the east, there is a later two-storey addition that extends the original cottage, which includes two three-light leaded casement windows. A central porch with a tent roof and trellis design is present at the front. There is also a modern addition at the rear of the property.
