Dove Cottage And Attached Garden Railings

Dove Cottage is an early 19th-century cottage located in Hartington Town Quarter. It is built from coursed, squared, dressed gritstone with ashlar gritstone dressings and quoins. The cottage features a slate roof with a stone ridge and large stone gable end stacks that have plain banding. The gables are stone-coped with moulded kneelers and there is a moulded eaves cornice. The building is two storeys high and has three bays. The central doorcase has plain bases and an elaborately reeded surround with projecting square corners that feature flower head motifs. Above the door, there is a small bracketed hood. The door itself is glazed and panelled, topped with a rectangular fanlight. On either side of the door, there are glazing bar sashes in plain surrounds with incised fluted keystones. The upper storey has three similar windows. Attached to the front of the cottage are original railings and a gate set on a shallow stone base, adorned with arrow head and urn finials.
