Description

Church Cottage and Nos 1 and 2 are a row of three cottages that were originally one house. They date from the late 17th century but underwent significant remodelling in the 19th century. The cottages are constructed from coursed squared limestone rubble with gritstone dressings, featuring quoins at the north end, a moulded eaves band, and ridge stacks made of brick and stone. The roof is stone slated.

The building has three storeys and three bays. The north bay retains 17th-century three-light chamfered mullioned window openings, which used to have a continuous dripmould over the first-floor windows, now removed to align flush with the masonry. There is a dripmould above the ground floor three-light opening and over the lintel of the doorway at the north end, which has a heavy quoined surround and a modern 20th-century door. The two southern bays have been altered to create two single-bay cottages. Each of these formerly had glazing bar sashes in plain stone surrounds, but now the central cottage has a single glazing bar sash, while the cottage at the south end features 20th-century joinery. The doorways to the cottages have plain heads and six-panelled doors.
