Description
This is a cottage dating back to the 17th century, with later alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The walls are constructed from rubble limestone and ironstone, with 20th-century brick extensions at the rear, and an asbestos tile roof. It has two storeys and an attic, originally with three bays, although the two right bays have gabled ends. A 4-light casement window sits below a wood lintel on the left side. Similar windows are on the first floor, featuring old iron casements, and there's another similar window in the attic. A coped gable end is present.
An early 19th-century extension projects forward from the left side; it is believed to have been a former barn and is now incorporated into the dwelling. This extension is built with red and grey chequer brick and has a slate roof, extending over three bays. It features a 19th-century gabled stone porch with iron columns in the right bay, containing an inner doorway with a wood lintel and a 6-panel door with a side light. Two 5-light casement windows with wood lintels are on the left. A small, 19th-century brick outbuilding stands to the left, with cob construction at the rear and a slate roof, featuring three plank doors with wood lintels and a small 20th-century window.
Inside, you'll find stop-chamfered spine beams. There’s an open fireplace with a large timber bressumer carved with a Jacobean-style fluted pattern, along with a 17th-century fireplace with a moulded stone 4-centred arch in a bedroom. According to local records, it was once part of a larger house that has since been reduced in size.
