Description
Wilsons Place is a 17th-century building that has been altered over time. It is a low structure with two storeys, constructed from white-washed stone rubble and topped with a slate roof. The building features a slate porch with an inner bench, three windows, and two additional doors on the ground floor. Above, there are seven windows, which include configurations of 6, 8, 9, and 18 panes. The left end of the building is lower in proportion, indicating that it was originally a farmhouse and cottage, but it has since been converted into a single residence.
