Description
Zelly Cottage is an 18th-century building. It is constructed of whitewashed brick, with a hipped roof covered in handmade tiles. A modillion cornice runs along the top of the building. The cottage has two storeys and features three double-hung sash windows, with the central window bricked in. On the ground floor, a modern central door is present, topped by a pedimented hood supported by brackets, featuring a tracery fanlight. Two sash windows are located on either side of the door, each with a cambered brick relieving arch above. The windows retain their original glazing bars throughout.
