Description
Dower House Cottage is a detached cottage dating from the mid-17th century. It is built of limestone rubble with dressed stone quoins and features a stone slate roof with a stone ridge and ashlar stacks on the main body. The weatherboarded extension has an artificial stone slate roof. The cottage has a rectangular plan and includes a 20th-century lean-to at the rear and a 20th-century garage extension on the left gable end. It has one and a half storeys with a gablet positioned off-centre to the left.
On the ground floor, there are two three-light and one small single-light metal casement windows, all with timber lintels. The upper right features a two-light raking dormer with a 19th-century casement, and there is a two-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood at the gablet. A similar gablet is located at the rear. The front door, which is a 20th-century plank door, is positioned off-centre to the left and has a timber lintel. The left side has a one and a half storey 20th-century extension with a weatherboarded front, and there is a single-storey 20th-century lean-to at the rear. The cottage has gable-end and axial stacks, both featuring moulded cappings and skirtings, flat coped gables, and a roll-cross saddle at the right gable end. The interior has not been inspected.
