Description
East Piend Roofed Range at Southfield Cottage is an early 19th century U-plan, two-storey steading that includes a range of single-storey cottages. The steading features rubble walls with droved sandstone dressings, while the cottages have random rubble walls with stugged sandstone dressings.
The east range contains a cartshed and granary, with three segmental cart-arches at ground level in each bay and two loft windows below the eaves flanking the central bay. The east elevation has four bays, with a window and loft door at ground level and below the eaves in the outer left bay, a blank bay to the left of the centre, and loft windows in the right of centre and outer right bays.
The south range's north elevation includes a slit ventilator at the centre, a large modern sliding door to the left, and a brick and stone forestair leading to the loft with a timber handrail in the re-entrant angle to the outer left. There are a pair of doors to the outer right with a rubble-infilled window below the eaves.
On the west range, the east elevation has a sliding door to the left of centre, while the north elevation features a window only to the left.
The roofs are piended, covered with grey slates and cast-iron skylights on the south and west ranges, while the east range has modern profiled metal cladding. The southwest and southeast corners have pantiles with a slate easing course.
The cottages consist of a terraced run of two cottages with a piend-roofed addition at the east end. The asymmetrical north elevation has a door to the outer right with a rubble-infilled window adjacent to the left, a window to the left of centre with a door adjacent to the left, a door to the outer left with a window adjacent to the right, and a pair of small windows in the addition to the left.
The windows are 4-pane timber hoppered and sash and case types, and the doors are vertically boarded timber. The west cottage has pantiles with a slate easing course, while the east cottage and addition have grey slate roofs. The stacks are made of rubble and harled rubble, capped with circular cans, and feature stugged sandstone ashlar skew-copes.
