Description
This is a mid 19th century cottage of single storey and attic height, originally with three bays. A central door is positioned between the bays, and a modern projecting porch with glazing has been added. The walls are built of rubble and painted, with contrasting pointing and harled flanks. Two piended dormers extend from the wallhead. The windows contain four panes each, and there are end stacks. The roof is covered with slate. A small, single storey extension with three bays and a central door projects from the west gable.
