Description

Trinity Cottage is a house located on the north side of St Andrew Street in Wells. It dates from the late 18th century and has undergone some alterations in the mid-19th century. The building is rendered and colourwashed, featuring a Welsh slate roof with coped gables and partly rendered brick chimney stacks. The structure has a symmetrical parallel range plan, but the front range has been modified, lacking a rear slope at its west end.

The cottage is two storeys high with attics and consists of three bays. It has a plinth and a cornice with a timber box gutter on a coved cornice. The outer bays contain sash windows, which are plain below and have 12 panes above. In the center, there is a 20th-century panelled door with a square transom-light in a plain surround, and above the door is a blind panel with an ovolo mould architrave, impost blocks, and a keystone. The ground-floor windows feature 'floating' keystones, and all sills are made of stone. There are also three 2-light 20th-century casement windows in gabled dormers, with slating on the gables and cheeks.

The site has been occupied since at least the 13th century when the street was known as Byestewel. The current property was likely rebuilt around the same time as Nos 4 and 6, with which it shares some architectural details. It is set back approximately 300 meters from these adjoining units.
