Burnside Cottages Burnside Flat The Poplars

Burnside Cottages, including The Poplars and Burnside Flat, is a row of cottages dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. They are constructed from coursed, squared, and tooled gritstone with a stone slate roof. The building is an extended and subdivided four-bay range, with bays three and four projecting forward. Burnside Flat occupies the entire second floor and has a rear entrance. The structure has three storeys and features four windows on the first floor. Throughout the building, there are wooden casements with glazing bars.

Bay two, which is from the 18th century, has large quoins and a panelled door set within an open stone porch. To the left, there is a three-light window with a projecting sill, along with a three-light window on the first floor and a two-light window on the second floor, both framed with square-faced stone surrounds. The 19th-century bays one and three have similar three-light windows with projecting sills on each floor. Bay four, also from the 19th century, features a 20th-century part-glazed door to the left and three-light windows with projecting sills on both upper floors. There is a corniced ashlar stack to the left of bay two, along with three other ashlar stacks, two of which have been extended in brick. A pair of cottages attached to the left, also known as Burnside Cottages, is not of special interest.
