Description
Barton Cottage is a house built around 1840, with later extensions and alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed from sandstone ashlar, with extensions made of mottled and painted brick in English garden-wall bond. The building features a moulded timber eaves cornice and a hipped slate roof, which has a brick stack at the base of the right hip and on the ridge of the wing.
The layout consists of a central entrance hall plan, with a rear service wing to the left. The front façade is two stories high and has three windows. The front door is made of six raised-and-fielded panels and includes a margin-glazed overlight, all beneath a moulded cornice hood supported by shaped brackets. To the right of the door, there is a three-light canted bay window with chamfered ogee-stopped mullions, a moulded cornice, and single-pane sash windows. The other windows on the front are 12-pane sashes with plain lintels, and all windows have stone sills. A modillion eaves course runs along the top.
On the left side, there is a two-story, three-window front with a two-story, one-window projecting extension at the left end. All windows here are also 12-pane sashes with stone sills and plain lintels, with the center ground floor window altered from a doorway. Inside, there is a dogleg, close-string staircase featuring stick balusters, a shaped handrail, and a turned column newel.
