Description

Wisteria Cottage is one of a pair of cottages that were originally built as one house, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. The building is constructed from coursed roughly squared and dressed limestone, featuring dressed stone quoins. It has a stone slate roof with both an ashlar and an artificial stone stack. The cottage has a rectangular plan and is two stories high, with a facade that has two windows. The windows are double-chamfered, three-light stone-mullioned casements with stopped hoods. There is a 20th-century plank door located in the right gable end, and the building has axial stacks. Inside, there is a spine beam and a moulded Tudor-arched fireplace with carved spandrels. A 20th-century extension at the rear is noted but is not of special interest.
