Description
Arniefoul is an 18th-century cottage that likely incorporates some earlier fabric dating back to 1677. It is a single-storey building with three bays, featuring narrow bands of rubble.
The southwest elevation is symmetrical, with a boarded timber door at the center that has a dated lintel, flanked by windows in the adjacent bays. To the right, there is a paired modern rooflight, and to the left, a single rooflight.
On the northeast elevation, there are two small windows grouped in the center. The southeast elevation features a full-width modern lean-to conservatory. The northwest elevation has a window on the outer left and a small opening in the gablehead to the left.
The cottage has timber sash and case windows with 4- and 12-pane glazing patterns. The roof is covered with grey slates. There is a coped ashlar stack on the southeast side and a brick stack on the northwest side, both equipped with cans. The bargeboarding is plain.
Surrounding the property are coped, narrow-banded rubble boundary walls to the north and south.
