Description
The Old Toll Cottage is a toll house, now a private residence, built in 1844. The building is rendered over rubble and features a natural and artificial slate roof with decorative barge boards, along with rendered ridge and end stacks. It has an L-plan layout and stands two storeys tall.
The front of the cottage includes a 20th-century door set within a full-height porch that has a hipped roof, accompanied by small 20th-century windows. The building was refenestrated in the mid to late 20th century, showcasing a gabled half-dormer to the bay on the right side of the porch and a projecting gable end on the left. There is a two-window range facing Longrag Hill, with the gable oriented to the left-hand side.
The cottage is designed in an asymmetrical composition that reflects the Picturesque tradition and is grouped with the nearby Roman Catholic Church on Longdrag Hill. The interior has not been inspected.
