Description

No. 3 Wisteria Cottages, including the barn, is a house dating from the early 19th century. It features solid rendered walls and slated roofs that are hipped at the east end, with clay ridge-tiles and overhanging eaves. The barn to the north has a corrugated-iron lean-to roof. There are rendered chimney stacks on the south gable and on the north side of the north range. The building has an L-shaped plan with the barn attached to the north side. The right-hand arm of the house projects at right angles to the main building line of Wisteria Cottages, with the barn built forward to match it.

The house is two storeys high and has a single-storey late 19th or early 20th century glazed lean-to at the front. There are two main fronts that are adjacent to each other at the angle of the L. The east-facing front has two windows in the ground storey and one in the second storey, all featuring 2-light wood casements with eight panes per light. The south-facing front has an eight-paned sash window in each storey, with a 20th-century glazed door to the left of the ground storey. To the right of this, the side wall of the house facing the road has no windows, but the adjacent barn has a six-paned wood casement window in what appears to be a heightened section of the upper storey. In the ground storey of the barn, there are two early 19th-century plank doors with wrought-iron strap-hinges. The interior has not been inspected. The building is included for its group value.
