Myrtle Cottage

Myrtle Cottage is a semi-detached cottage that may date back to the 17th century, with alterations made in the late 18th century and mid-20th century. It is constructed of red sandstone random rubble and features a steeply pitched triple Roman tiled roof with a bell cast. The right verge is coped, and there is a chamfered corner where the facade meets the gable end. A large external stepped stack is located at the right gable end, which includes a slate-roofed bread oven projection in the angle.

The cottage has a plan consisting of two cells and a cross passage, with the entrance relocated to the rear. It stands two storeys high and has three bays on the first floor, which contain leaded casements flanking a pointed arch leaded iron casement with Gothick tracery and large diamond leaded panes. The ground floor has four 20th-century wooden casements, with the left two under brick lintels and the right two under wooden lintels. The centre two windows may have once been a blocked doorway. The entrance is at the rear. The interior has not been seen. Myrtle Cottage is adjacent to The Three Bears on the left and was likely converted into two dwellings in the 18th or 19th century.
