Description
44 Bridge Road is a cottage built around 1810, featuring a 20th-century extension at the rear, which is not included in the listing. The cottage is single-storey with three bays and a piend roof, situated on a sloping site with a basement at the rear. The central bay is slightly advanced and has a blocked open pediment, with a quatrefoil in a diamond panel in the tympanum. The entrance, marked as number 44, has a recessed non-traditional door set up steps within a hoodmoulded doorpiece. The outer bays contain windows with painted margins and similar hoodmoulds. There is a non-traditional door on the east elevation, with a window to the right of it. The main elevation is constructed of coursed rubble, while the sides are made of random rubble, with ashlar dressings and long and short quoins.
The windows feature 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case style. The cottage has broad corniced wall-head stacks with red clay cans and deep blocked eaves. The roof is covered with graded grey slates and grey ridge-tiles.
Additionally, there is a boundary wall made of coped random rubble to the east, which includes a wrought-iron gate.
