Description

Jessamine Cottage is a cottage, one of a pair, probably built in the 18th century. It is constructed of local stone that is cut and roughly squared, with Ham stone dressings. The roof is made of Welsh slate and features a plain west gable, along with end brick chimney stacks. The cottage is two storeys high and has two bays. It has hollow chamfer mullioned windows with inserted casements that have horizontal bars and no hood moulds. There is a 20th-century porch to the right of the first bay. Jessamine Cottage adjoins Peace Lea on its east side.
