Description
Hale Cottage is a detached house on the street frontage, dating to the 17th century. It is constructed of limestone ashlar or rubble, with a stone slate roof. The house follows a "T" shape, likely built in two phases, with a cross-gabled back wing.
The front of the house, which faces the street, is two storeys high with an attic. The left side has two windows, including three 3-light and one 2-light recessed chamfer-mullion casements; the ground floor window on the right has a stopped hood, while the first floor has a 3-light gabled dormer. To the right, a section is set slightly forward and features plain walling, a large stack raised in reconstructed stone, and a short cross-gabled roof.
The back of the house has a window arrangement of 2 over 3 over 3-light casements with a hood over the gable. A small single-light window is situated at the eaves, above a 2-light casement, which has a wood lintel. A 20th-century door is located in the back wing, alongside two 3-light casements with leading. The end of this wing features a single recessed chamfer light with a hood on the first floor, and an ashlar stack with a moulded capping. The interior has not been inspected.
Attached to the street front, on the right-hand side, is approximately 3 metres of boundary wall, standing around 2.5 metres high and topped with tiles. The wall incorporates an early 3-plank door in a moulded 18th-century surround, above which are the lower remains of a 2-light chamfer-mullioned window.
