Shepherd's Cottage, Smeaton

Shepherd's Cottage is a two-storey, three-bay house built around 1860, featuring Tudor architectural details. The structure is made of rubble sandstone with cement pointing and ashlar dressings, while the side elevations are harled. It has chamfered reveals and hoodmoulds over the ground floor openings, with first-floor windows that break the eaves in gabled dormerheads.

On the southeast elevation, the center bay is slightly advanced and includes a doorway and a first-floor window, along with a small-pane fanlight. There are single windows on each floor of the flanking bay to the left. A concrete mullioned bipartite window has been inserted at ground level to the right, with a single window above it.

The northwest elevation features a stone gabled porch that projects at the center, complete with a rounded hoodmould and a blank shield panel at the apex. Above the porch is a first-floor window, with additional windows on each floor in the flanking bays.

The cottage has a 4-pane glazing pattern in its sash and case windows, gablet coping on the skews, and bracketted skewputts. The end stacks are harled, and the roof is covered with grey slates.
