Description

Brewer's Bush is a cottage likely designed by Robert Smith and dated 1873. It is a single-storey building with an attic, featuring a rectangular plan and three bays. The exterior is made of tooled, coursed sandstone rubble with stugged dressings that are droved to the margins. Architectural details include stop-chamfered reveals, overhanging eaves, gabled dormers, and timber bargeboards.

The north elevation, which serves as the entrance, is near-symmetrical. It has a replacement panelled timber door at the center of the ground floor, framed by a gabled timber porch with kingpost detail. To the left is a projecting bipartite window, and to the right is another bipartite window. A modern rooflight is located in the center of the roof. The attic features a dormer window on the left bay with a tooled panel in the gablehead that reads "RD" (Robert Dundas), and another dormer window on the right bay with a tooled panel that reads "1873."

The west elevation is asymmetrical, with a single window positioned off-centre to the left of the gablehead. The south elevation was not seen in 1998. The east elevation is also asymmetrical, featuring a single window off-centre to the right of the gablehead.

The cottage has 2-pane timber sash and case windows on the ground floor and 4-pane timber sash and case windows in the attic. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a lead ridge. Stugged, corniced gablehead stacks with octagonal cans are present, along with cast-iron rainwater goods. The interior was not seen in 1998.
