Description
Downhill Cottage and Beadle Cottage are a pair of houses built in the late 18th century, located on the west side of New Road in Robin Hood's Bay. They are constructed from finely herringbone-tooled coursed sandstone and feature a pantiled roof. The buildings are two storeys high and have an irregular layout with two and one bays, supported by a double-stepped plinth.
Downhill Cottage has a 20th-century stable-type door to the left of the center, with a 28-paned fixed light to the left and a sixteen-pane sash window to the right. On the first floor, there is a 24-pane Yorkshire sash window to the left and a 20th-century two-light casement window with glazing bars to the right. Beadle Cottage, on the right, features a recessed door with six fielded panels on the left and an early 20th-century plain sash window on the right. The first floor has a 24-pane Yorkshire sash window and a small inserted light to the left. All windows, except for the modern ones, have projecting cills, and there are chimneys at the right end of both cottages.
