Description
Ebor Cottage and West Lea is a house that has been converted into two dwellings. It dates from the early to mid-18th century and has undergone some alterations. The building is constructed of sandstone ashlar, with some areas lightly tooled and a herringbone-tooled pattern on the right side and rear. It features a pantiled roof and stands two storeys high with three very irregular windows.
The central doors are paired: Ebor Cottage has a four-panel door with a blocked overlight, set in a later 19th-century wooden frame that includes a bracketed cornice. West Lea has a six-panel door with beaded panels and a blocked patterned overlight, topped by a ball-bordered serpentine hood supported by full-length reeded brackets. Ebor Cottage has 14-pane sash windows with projecting sills and shutter hinge pins on the ground floor, while West Lea features two modern casements on each floor. Both dwellings show signs of older window openings.
The eaves are coved, and there is a large curved kneeler on the right side. The rear elevation is only one storey high due to the rise of the land and includes a small eight-pane sash window on the left and a two-light stone-mullioned window with small sashes on the right.
