Description
Milton House is an earlier 19th-century house with a mid-19th-century addition at the south gable, known as Ord Cottage. The house is constructed of red rubble with contrasting yellow sandstone dressings.
Milton House is a two-storey and attic building with three bays, the central doorway hidden behind a glazed porch dating from around 1900. Two hipped dormers are visible in the roof. The windows are mostly 4-pane sashes. The house has panelled and corniced end stacks, and a slate roof. A low, coped retaining wall is accompanied by cast-iron spearhead railings.
Ord Cottage is a single-storey and attic structure with three narrow bays. It has a modern glazed door on the ground floor, two windows to the right, and a single hipped dormer that rises through the roofline. Like Milton House, it has 4-pane glazing, a panelled end stack, and a slate roof. Ord Cottage is listed only for its group value with Milton House.
