Description

Briar Cottage and the attached outbuilding are a house dating from the 18th century. The building is constructed of coursed rubble and rubble limestone, featuring gritstone quoins, moulded kneelers, and coped gables. It has a 20th-century brick stack on the east gable and a Welsh slated roof. The cottage is three storeys high and has a single bay, with stacked two-light flush mullioned windows that have extended heads, cills, and glazing bar sashes. There is a blocked doorway at the west end, and a 2.5 metre limestone rubble wall, which was formerly the side wall of an adjoining house, includes a quoined, chamfered doorway that now serves as a garden entrance. Attached to the east end is a single-storey outbuilding made of rubble limestone, also with a Welsh slated roof. The building is listed for its group value only.
