Description
Park View Cottages is a former detached house that has been converted into a row of four houses. It dates from the early 17th century and was altered in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of random rubble limestone, mostly covered in roughcast render, with chimneys made of ashlar and artificial stone. It has a stone slate roof and is two stories high with an attic, featuring a cross-wing at the east end.
The south front shows the cross wing projecting forward to the right, which has an altered casement window on the ground floor and attic. The upper floor has a 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement on the west side of the wing, with one light blocked. There is a gabled stair turret at the angle with the rest of the building to the left, featuring two single stair lights on the front face and another in the angle on the west side. The main range has mixed fenestration, including some recessed cavetto mullioned casements with hoodmoulds, two 2-light windows on the upper floor, and one 3-light window on the ground floor, most of which have been restored. There are two doorways with stone lintels, and timber casements that likely replaced original mullioned windows. The roof features two gabled dormers and several ridge-mounted chimneys, one of which has a moulded cap.
On the west end, there is a 2-light mullioned attic casement with a hoodmould in the exposed masonry gable end. The east end has a two-window arrangement on the side of the cross wing, with a central doorway that has a 19th-century timber porch and four-pane sash windows on the upper floor. The interior has not been inspected.
