Description

Mount Cottage is a house with an attached workshop, dating from the late 18th century, with later alterations. The building features coursed limestone, which is rendered on the left gable wall, and has a pantile roof for the house and a corrugated roof for the workshop. The house has brick stacks, one of which has been rebuilt, while the workshop is rendered. The front wall of the property is made of coursed roughly squared limestone with milled coping.

The house has a central staircase plan and is one room deep with a continuous outshut. It is two stories high and has a two-window front, with the workshop located at a lower level to the left. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door with an overlight, accessed by a flight of stone steps. The house features four-pane sash windows with stone sills. The workshop has a six-panel door beneath a divided overlight, along with a fixed light window with glazing bars to the left and a small fixed-light window above. Throughout the building, there are painted timber lintels.

The house has coped gables, plain kneelers, and end stacks, while the workshop has a single end stack. There is a flight of steps at the front, situated behind a ramped up retaining wall. At the time of the resurvey, the building was unoccupied.
