Description

Corner Cottage, Dunkery View, and White Post Cottage is a farmhouse that has been expanded into a row of cottages. It likely dates from the 16th to 17th century and was enlarged and altered in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of red sandstone random rubble, with the north end rendered and the south end roughcast. It has a double Roman tiled roof, with a pyramid shape at the right north-east end and brick stacks on the south gable end, the north side of the rear elevation, and above the cross gable.

The building has a T-plan layout, stretching from north-east to south-west, with a canted north-east end and a block added at the south-west end, featuring a cross wing on the south-east front. It is one and a half storeys tall, with the south-east front displaying a 1:2:1 bay arrangement. The gable end on the left has a 2-light casement, and there are two 2-light dormers. The cross wing features an oriel window on shaped brackets beneath a scallop tiled gable end and a pentice. There is a cat slide roof to the right over a porch, with an unlit first floor on the right and a blocked doorway on the left with an ogee headed lancet inserted. A buttress is present, along with a 3-light window to the left of the pentice porch and an ogee headed ribbed door. To the right, there is an arched lancet and a 3-light window in the cross gable end, with a Tudor arch head porch that has an inserted half-glazed door. The right side has squared headed recesses with sprockets and 3-light casements, similar to those on the left. The left return features two bays with ogee headed 3-light casements on the ground floor flanking diagonally boarded double doors, and a double Roman pentice hood porch. This building forms a picturesque group.
