Description

Grigorhill is a single storey and attic cottage built in the mid 19th century. The cottage is constructed from coursed rubble with contrasting tooled dressings. The front features a central door that is concealed by a later rustic porch. There are canted dormers added in the later 19th century, and the ground floor windows have 12-pane glazing. The cottage has corniced end stacks and is topped with a local slate roof.
