Description
Pilgrim Cottage is a detached house dating from the 17th century. It features square-panelled timber framing set on a low limestone plinth. The gable end away from the road is made of coursed squared and dressed limestone and has the stump of an early brick stack. The gable end facing Lake Street is now encased in brick below the eaves level. The roof is made of stone slate. The main body of the cottage has a rectangular plan and consists of two storeys and an attic. The garden front is illuminated by two and three-light casements with leaded panes, and the first-floor window is slightly canted with moulded brackets below. The gable end facing the road has a shallow three-light canted bay on the ground floor, with two two-light casements on the first floor and a two-light casement in the attic. There is a brattished tie-beam above the first-floor windows. The interior is not described. There is a 20th-century extension to the gable end away from the road, which is not of special interest.
