Description
April Cottage is a cottage built in the late 18th century. It is constructed from pinkish-brown local brick and features a pantile roof with raised rendered verges and end brick stacks. The building has two storeys and consists of two bays. On the ground floor, there are Yorkshire sash windows with glazing bars set beneath painted lintels. Access to the central entrance is via four stone steps leading to a six-panel door that is framed by a 20th-century surround. The cottage also has a first-floor band and dentilled eaves. An adjoining section to the north is not of particular interest.
