Description
Stratford Cottage is a 17th-century cottage that underwent extensive alterations in the mid to late 19th century. It is constructed of red sandstone random rubble with a rendered upper storey on the west front, featuring exposed quoins. The cottage has a half hipped thatched roof and a large lateral stack on the north front topped with a moulded 19th-century brick cap.
The building has a two-cell plan with a porch addition on the north front and a canted stair bay on the south front, along with a lean-to addition on the east side. It stands two storeys tall with a south front that has four bays and late 19th-century windows. The left bay of the first floor is unlit, and the roof sweeps down to a plank door below. To the left of the canted stair bay is a 2-light casement window, which has an ogee-headed stair light above it. The ground floor features two 3-light casements with wooden lintels, and there is a 2-light casement in the tiled lean-to addition on the right.
The left return, or west front, jetties out over a chamfered, plastered bressumer, with a 2-light leaded casement above and a 4-light depressed 4-centred arch head small casement below. There is another entry on the north front through the porch addition.
