Description
Town Farm Cottage is a late 17th-century building that was originally three cottages and is now a single house. It features a colourwash finish over coursed slatestone rubble, with gabled roofs covered in asbestos slate and slate. The left end has a 17th-century stone stack with drip courses, while a 19th-century brick stack finishes the ridge. The cottage has a three-unit plan and stands two storeys high, with a four-window range. There is a mid-19th-century gabled porch to the left of the centre, which has a 20th-century outer door and a 19th-century plank inner door. The windows have timber lintels above 20th-century casements, and there is a rolled steel joist above a 20th-century garage entry to the right.
Inside, there is an ogee-stopped bressummer over an open fireplace in the garage to the right, along with chamfered and plain beams. To the left, there is a similar open fireplace with a cloam oven, adjacent to plank cupboard doors that feature late 17th-century butterfly hinges. The first floor includes principal rafters for two 17th-century A-frame trusses on the right.
