Description
Ivy Cottage is a house that has been divided into two dwellings, likely built in the late 17th century with later alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. It features coursed limestone rubble and a slate roof, with coped gables and moulded stone ridge and end stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a four-window range, with quoins at the corners. There are two 20th-century doors and small-paned casement windows with wooden lintels. The left gable end displays a stone inscribed with "HL/1671" and has a blocked two-light stone mullioned window. To the right, there is a lean-to addition. At the rear, there is a two-light metal casement window with leaded panes, which is concealed by the roof of a later addition to No. 8. Inside No. 8, there is a small inglenook with a chamfered bressumer in the right-hand room on the ground floor.
