Description
Cowstone Gill House is a farmhouse and outbuilding, now functioning as a house, dated 1674, with later alterations. It is constructed of rubble and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and two sets of two first-floor windows. The original house is located to the left and includes a rear outshut. A central gabled porch, added in 1960, has a boarded inner door. Above the door is a plaque with raised lettering that reads "GEF 1674". The windows are sash style with glazing bars, featuring projecting lintels and sills, except for the ground floor window to the right, which has an ashlar surround. The end stacks are present, with the left stack being external. To the right is a former outbuilding that has two-light flat-faced mullion windows with casements. At the rear of the house, there are double-chamfered mullion window surrounds, while the rear of the former outbuilding features ashlar door surrounds, including a first-floor pitching door that has been converted into a window.
