Description
Quarry Cottage is a detached house dating from the early to mid-18th century. It is constructed of coursed squared and dressed limestone, with an ashlar facade, and has a stone slate roof with 20th-century stone stacks. The house is two storeys and has an attic. The symmetrical facade has three windows. The windows are two-light, flat-chamfered stone-mullioned casements with horizontal glazing bars, and a continuous dripmould over the ground-floor windows. A central 20th-century plank door is sheltered by a gabled stone canopy with moulded margins and supporting brackets. The gable ends have flat coping. Gable-end stacks are also present. The interior has not been inspected.
