Woodman'S Cottage

Woodman's Cottage is the end house of a row, possibly dating from the 18th century. It is constructed from large squared and coursed limestone blocks and features a plinth and a coped gable with a saddle-stone at the street end. The cottage has large external stacks with rebuilt upper stages located at the back, on the right side as viewed from the road. It is two storeys high and has two windows: a plain chamfered mullion 2-light window on the first floor and a 3-light window on the ground floor, alongside a late 20th-century glazed plank door to the left. The gable faces the street and has two 3-light chamfered mullion casements beneath stepped drips. While it is a modest cottage, it is part of a row that holds social and historic significance for the town, especially considering the decline of milling activities in the area. At the time of the survey, it was being used as a holiday cottage.
