Description
This cottage, located behind the New Inn in Clovelly, dates from the 18th century and has undergone significant alterations in the 19th century, including changes to its windows. The building is rendered, whitewashed, and features a gabled slate roof with a brick chimney stack on the left and another at the rear with an exposed breast. It is part of a row of cottages and has a single room depth. The exterior consists of two storeys and a two-window front. On the first floor, there is an early 19th-century two-light six-pane casement window on the left and a 16-pane sash window on the right, both under exposed sash boxes. The ground floor has a nine-pane casement window and a four-pane casement window, along with two door openings: a half-glazed door to the left that is accessed by three steps, and a plank door to the right. The interior has not been seen.
