Description
Stone Cottage consists of two houses built between 1860 and 1864 for Lady Overstone. The structure is made of regularly coursed lias stone with brick dressings and features a slate roof. Each house originally had a two-unit plan and stands two storeys high. The front has a two-window range with two-light wood-mullioned windows that include cast-iron lozenge glazing bars, all set under flat brick arches with brick dressings. The first-floor windows are located in half dormers, while the ground floor right features a square bay window. There are gabled porches on both the left and right sides, each with 20th-century doors and arch head openings. The eaves overhang, and there is a central brick chimney stack. The gables on either side have similar windows with a slit at the apex and plain bargeboards. The interiors have not been inspected.
