Description
Quay Cottage is a cottage dating from around the mid-19th century, likely a remodelling of an earlier building. It was undergoing significant restoration at the time of the survey in 1987. The structure is made of roughcast stone rubble and features a slate roof with gabled ends and black glazed ridge tiles. The right gable end has a short stack with a new clay pot.
Originally, the cottage had a two-room plan with a central entrance, and the right-hand room was heated from a gable end stack. There is a passageway at the left end of the house leading to the back. By 1987, the cottage was being restored, and the internal partitions on the ground floor had been removed to create one large room. There is also a wing at the rear of the right-hand end, which may be a recent addition.
The exterior of the cottage is two storeys high and features a slightly asymmetrical two-window east front. It has 20th-century two-light casements, with two panes per light, and slate sills. The central doorway has late 20th-century plank double doors and a late 20th-century gabled and glazed porch with a slate roof. The doorway to the passageway on the left has a late 20th-century plank door. The rear elevation was not inspected. The cottage is included for its group value.
