Description
This building at 10 Main Street, Port William, dates from the earlier to mid 19th century and is a single-storey cottage with an attic, featuring three bays. The east elevation, facing Main Street, is constructed of coursed rubble with cherry-caulking in the upper courses, while the north and south elevations are made of painted rubble with painted margins.
On the east elevation, there is a central door topped by a 5-pane fanlight, with windows located in the outer bays. Above these outer bays, there are later canted and piended dormer windows that are slate-hung and feature timber finials. The south elevation has a window positioned to the left of centre, while the north elevation is gabled and blank.
The cottage has timber sash and case windows, with 12-pane glazing on the ground floor and 2- and 4-pane glazing in the dormer windows. The building is topped with red sandstone coped skews and raised skewputts, and it has painted rubble gablehead stacks with red sandstone copes. The roof is covered with purple slates, and there are several octagonal cans, including very tall tapered cans on the south stack.
