Church View Ivy Cottage

Ivy Cottage and Church View are two cottages located in Kirby Hill, dating from the 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. They are constructed from rubble stone, partly coursed, and feature stone slate roofs. The buildings are two storeys high, with a symmetrical arrangement of windows on the first floor.

Ivy Cottage is on the left and has a part-glazed door to the right, with a 20th-century casement window on each floor. The stonework on the first floor appears to have been rebuilt and coursed, and there is a shaped kneeler and ashlar coping on the right side. In the center, there is a segmental-arched carriageway with ashlar voussoirs and a quoined jamb to the left, above which is a 20th-century casement window.

Church View, which is slightly projecting to the right, features quoins. On the ground floor to the left, there is a part-glazed door within a quoined surround, and an inscription on the lintel reads "1708." To the right, there is a 20th-century square bay window and a 20th-century casement window on the first floor. The right side also has a shaped kneeler, ashlar coping, and an end stack.

The roof of the left part of the building was previously steeper and higher, as indicated by the water-table on the west gable of the adjacent Rose Cottage. At the rear, there are quoined doorways for Ivy Cottage and on the right return of the rear wing of Church View. These cottages are included for their group value.
