Description
Cheviot View is a cottage dated 1809, with later additions and alterations. It is a single-storey building with an attic and has a rectangular plan with three bays. There is a separate single-storey ancillary block at the rear, which has been linked by a porch, forming an L-shape, with a further lean-to addition beyond. The front is constructed from harl-pointed, squared, and coursed tooled red sandstone rubble, with droved sandstone dressings. The sides and rear are finished in harl-pointed rubble, featuring droved quoins and droved long and short surrounds to the openings, along with flush cills.
On the southeast (entrance) elevation, there is a boarded timber door at the center of the ground level, with a lintel dated '1809'. There are single windows in the flanking bays at ground level, and slate-hung gabled dormers aligned above. The northeast (side) elevation includes a gabled block to the left with a single window at ground level on the outer left and a small attic light offset to the left of center. To the right, there is a single window in a flat-roofed porch. A catslide window breaks the eaves in the single-storey block adjoining to the right, which has a lean-to addition on the outer right.
The northwest (rear) elevation features the original cottage with a single window offset to the right of center, and a gabled projection on the outer right with a lean-to addition at the front to the left. The southwest (side) elevation has a gabled block to the right with a square window at ground level on the outer left and a small attic window offset to the right of center. There is a boarded timber door to the left in the porch linking to the single-storey block on the outer left.
The front features border-glazed timber sash and case windows, while the dormers have border-glazed timber casements. The rear has 6-pane windows. The roofs are covered in grey slate, with stone skews and cast-iron rainwater goods. There is a corniced sandstone apex stack on the southwest side and a brick-built apex stack on the northeast side, both with circular cans.
The interior was not seen in 1998.
