Description
Raybrook Cottage is a pair of cottages that have been combined into one residence, dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared and dressed limestone, topped with a stone slate roof. The stacks feature dressed stone quoins and have been restored in the 20th century.
The cottage has a rectangular plan with extensions on both gable ends, standing two storeys high with an attic, along with a 1.5-storey and a single-storey extension. The facade has two windows, including one 2-light and one 3-light double chamfered stone-mullioned casement on the ground floor, and a 2-light casement positioned far left. Above, there are two 2-light casements with gablets on the first floor. The building also features two 19th-century plank doors with thumb latches, each covered by shallow pitched metal canopies.
To the right, there is a 1.5-storey extension that includes a 20th-century top opening casement on the ground floor and a 2-light half dormer, along with a top opening casement in the adjoining lean-to extension. A plank door leads to the lean-to at the left gable end. The cottage has gable-end and axial stacks. The interior has not been inspected.
