Description
Chapel Cottage is a mid-19th century building that was originally a school and is now a house. It is constructed of plastered rubble with a rubble stack featuring a brick chimney shaft, topped with a slate roof. The house has a gable-ended, two-room, double-depth layout, facing northwest. It has two storeys with attics and features a stack at the left (northeast) end and a door located in the right (southwest) gable end. The front has two windows, which are three-light wooden Tudor revival windows with wave-moulded mullions, round heads, and sunk spandrels. The right (southwest) gable end includes a studded plank door slightly off-center, a 19th-century three-light casement window with glazing bars on the left side, and a 20th-century attic casement window above. The building is adorned with a simple wavy bargeboard and a flat pendant. It is included for its group value.
