Description
The Corrugated-Iron Cottage in Errogie is a modest, two-bay timber-framed cottage clad in corrugated iron, standing approximately 2 meters high at the eaves. It is set back from the road and features its own garden. The cottage has a piended roof, interrupted by an off-centre single-flue axial masonry chimney stack. The door on the north elevation is simple, timber boarded, and has a timber hood above it. There are two windows, one on each long wall, which are 4-paned sash and case set in timber bands. Inside, there are two spaces, including a living room with a cast-iron fireplace and timber mantelpiece, and a narrow horizontal window over what is presumed to be the cooking area on the west elevation, likely a modification. This cottage is a rare example of a small-scale corrugated iron house, likely dating from the late 19th to early 20th centuries.
