Description
Mill Cottage is a former Methodist chapel and attached manse, now a house, built in 1860. It has minor late 19th-century additions and late 20th-century alterations. The building is constructed of sandstone, roughly dressed at the front and made of uncoursed rubble on the sides and rear, with some red-brick detailing on the chapel. It features a gable-ended roof covered with Welsh slate and has red brick chimney stacks.
The layout includes the former manse on the right and the former chapel on the left, positioned at right angles to the road. The manse has a plan consisting of two rooms, a central entrance, and integral end stacks, while the chapel also has integral stacks. There is a continuous lean-to outshut at the rear, likely a later 19th-century addition, with a brick stack at the rear of the right-hand end room of the lean-to. The building has two storeys, with the chapel being one storey.
The exterior of the manse features a three-bay front with small-paned, two-light wooden casements. The first floor has wooden lintels, while the ground floor has stone flat-arched heads. The central entrance has a 20th-century glazed door with a gabled glazed porch. The chapel also has a three-bay front, with the outer pair of large windows featuring brick round-arched heads and 20th-century small-paned wooden lights with radial fans. The central entrance has a 19th-century four-panelled door, with the lower two panels being flush, and a brick segmental head above it, along with a shallow gabled bracketed porch. The entrance is accessed by a flight of external stone steps with wrought-iron railings. The interior has not been inspected.
