Description

Renton Hall Cottage is an early 19th-century single-storey, three-bay farm cottage. It is constructed from rubble red sandstone with stugged grey ashlar dressings. The west elevation features a low, flat-roofed ashlar porch that projects at the center, which has two-leaf doors and a fanlight from the original door visible under the eaves of the house behind. There is a window in each of the flanking bays. The east (rear) elevation has three regularly spaced windows. On the north elevation, there is a low stone porch projecting from the left, which includes a small pointed arch window and a six-pane window on a piend-roofed west return, along with a doorway under an ashlar-coped skew to the east. The sash and case windows have a 12-pane glazing pattern, and the piend roof is covered with grey slates, featuring coped end stacks.
