Cowden Cleugh Cottage

Cowden Cleugh Cottage is a single-storey, asymmetrical gabled cottage designed by William Burn in 1829. The exterior is constructed of stugged variegated pink ashlar, featuring chamfered reveals and cills, along with deep overhanging eaves.

On the south elevation, the cottage has three bays, with the bay on the right slightly advanced. At the center, there is a gabled porch in a re-entrant angle, which was originally open but has been later enclosed with glazed and timber infill. This porch has a segmental arch with a Tuscan column to the left and a panelled door. The broad gabled bay to the right contains a canted window topped with an ashlar half-piend roof, while the left bay features a window in an advanced panel.

The west elevation consists of two gabled bays. The right bay has a canted window with an ashlar half-piend roof, and the left bay has a blocked narrow window.

The east elevation shows an advanced lop-sided gable with a blocked door to the right, an enlarged window at the center, and another window to the left.

The north elevation has a panelled door to the outer left, with a later small opening flanking it to the right. There are also windows at the center and to the right of the central gabled bay, as well as another window to the right.

The cottage features largely 4-pane glazing in sash and case windows, with some 2-pane windows. A rendered diagonally-placed ridge stack is located at the center, and the roof is covered with purple-grey slates. Additionally, there is a gabled ashlar outbuilding and a rubble garage to the northeast.
