Description
29 Main Street in Mochrum is a mid to later 19th century cottage, built after 1848. It is a single-storey, three-bay structure that is part of a terrace. The building features squared and snecked rubble with red sandstone dressings, including a simply architraved doorcase, rusticated rybated margins around the windows, rusticated quoins on the east side, and a rusticated quoin strip to the right of the left bay.
On the south elevation facing Main Street, there is a doorway at the center with a modern door and a letterbox fanlight. To the right, there is a window, and to the left, a broad, flat-arched machinery opening with timber two-leaf doors and a rubble keystoned arch.
The west elevation is attached to No 27 Main Street, while the east elevation is adjoined to No 31 Main Street. The cottage features 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows. The red sandstone coped mutual skews and scrolled skewputts are complemented by painted rubble mutual stacks, which have red sandstone rusticated quoins and copes. The roof is covered with small purple slates and includes three large modern rooflights.
