Description
Boghead is an early 19th century single-storey cottage featuring three main bays and low, single-bay flanking wings. The exterior is constructed of painted rubble with margins and has a curved corner on the north side. The central entrance door is flanked by four-pane sash windows. The cottage has end stacks and a slate roof. Originally, there was a door in each wing, but the door on the left has been converted into a window. The northwest wing retains its slate roof, while the southeast wing has been covered with a corrugated asbestos roof.
