Description

Moorfield Cottage is an early 19th-century house in a row. It is built of brick in an English garden wall bond, with a colourwashed finish, and has Ham stone dressings. The roof is a Mansard roof with plain clay tiles, a stepped coped east gable, and brick end chimney stacks. The house has a lias stone plinth, and contains 16-pane sash windows in plain openings with gauged brick flat heads. The central doorway is raised up two steps and has a four-panel door beneath a rectangular fanlight, set in a deep recess with a plain stone surround and a moulded flat hood on shaped brackets. The interior of the cottage was not inspected.
