Description
White Cottage is a late 17th-century building that consists of two houses now combined into one. The structure features cement rendered clay walls set on large projecting granite plinth stones, topped with a Welsh slate roof that has lower courses made of sandstone slates. The right end wall is constructed of brick on cobbles, and the eaves have been raised in height, with 20th-century brick chimney stacks added. The left side of the building is a two-storey, two-bay house, while the right side is a single-storey, four-bay house with a lower roof line. A plank door is located on the left, framed by a wooden architrave, and there are small 20th-century casement windows, some of which are in their original openings. Inside, the right side of the house contains one pair of upper crucks, with others removed when the roof was raised in the 19th century. There is a large clay hood over the inglenook, with a beam supported by a 20th-century heck post. At the time of the survey, the building was undergoing sympathetic restoration.
