Description
Lassiters Cottage is an early 19th-century, two-bay cottage featuring an end chimneystack and an integral rear outshot. It is constructed from the locally uncommon material ironstone, laid in small courses, with red and grey brick end quoins. The slate roof, likely replacing a tiled roof from 1838, is hipped on the north side and gabled on the south, where there is a non-projecting end brick chimneystack. The front, or west elevation, has two storeys with cambered-headed openings for the first-floor windows, which are 20th-century wooden casements with glazing bars. The two ground-floor windows are similar, and centrally located is a half-glazed 20th-century wooden door. The south side features one casement window and a cambered-headed doorcase in the outshot. A single-storey brick and rendered extension with a slate roof and wooden casement windows has been added to this side, as indicated on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map. The east or rear elevation slopes down to ground-floor level, and there are attached boundary walls made of stone rubble with brick coping.
Inside, the ground-floor front room has a large cambered opening to the fireplace, with a round-headed recess to the east that has thin wooden shelves for displaying china, and to the west, there is a plank door leading into the extension. A ledged and plank door provides access to the outshot, which contains a half-winder staircase with a moulded wooden balustrade, square posts, and plank balustrading. Underneath the staircase is a plank cupboard door. The first floor consists of two bedrooms, each with plank doors. One bedroom is noted to have a fireplace that has been covered over.
