Description
Number 4 Woodsdown Cottages is a cottage dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with a rear extension added in the mid-20th century. The building features roughcast over rubble and cob, topped with a thatched roof and a 19th-century brick stack at the gable end. It is a single cell structure with a stair and closet located at the north gable end, and the west front includes the 20th-century extension.
The east front is two storeys high and has two bays, featuring two 2-light 19th-century casement windows with multiple panes and projecting sills. The ground floor is unlit, with a central stable door that has a double lower door, and a fixed light 6-pane window in the south gable end facing the road.
Inside, there is a large open fireplace that contains a Raeburn stove and a wooden shelf supported by brackets. The north end has plank doors with original hinges. Although the upper floor was not seen, it is believed to have a collar beam roof. The walls of the cottage are made of rubble up to the first floor level.
