Description

Chapel Cottage, built in the early 19th century, is attached to the side of the adjacent Baptist Chapel. It is constructed from coursed rubble with a pantile roof, featuring coped verges on kneelers and brick stacks projecting through the roof at each end. The front facade is symmetrical, with two bays and flush-mounted sash windows with glazing bars, each set beneath a rough wooden lintel. A central doorway is set within a plain surround and has a door consisting of six flush-mounted panels. A small, corrugated iron, gabled hood shelters the doorway.
