Holylee Cottages, Holylee Farm

Holylee Cottages are a pair of 1930s Arts and Crafts-style cottages, built as adjoined rectangular structures with steeply pitched roofs and smaller, pitched and gabled side wings. The cottages are two stories high and feature four bays each. They are constructed from coursed local whinstone rubble, with chamfered sandstone sills, lintels, and mullions; whinstone rybats and quoins are also present.

The south-east (principal) elevation of the right-hand cottage has a plain entrance doorway containing a timber door with six glazed panels in the upper portion, protected by a slated canopy porch supported by timber brackets that break the eaves. There's a square window to either side of the door, and a two-part window with a stone mullion to the left. The left-hand cottage mirrors this layout, creating a symmetrical elevation.

The south-west elevation shows a main gable with a window in the upper left corner. A lower-pitched roof projects a wing adjoining to the ground floor on the left, which terminates in a gabled end.

The north-west (rear) elevation presents a symmetrical six-bay ground floor, with single windows in bays one and six, two-part windows in bays two and five and three-part windows in bays three and four. A half-story features a pair of catslide dormers, one for each cottage, with flat slated cheeks aligned above bays three and four.

The north-east elevation mirrors the south-west elevation, with a main gable, a window in the upper right corner, and a lower-pitched roof projecting a wing to the ground floor right, terminating in a gabled end.

The windows are timber sash and case, with 8, 9, and 12 panes. The panes are equally divided between the sashes, with the 9-pane windows having a three-pane upper sash and a six-pane lower sash, and the upper sashes featuring horns. The steeply pitched slate roof has slate ridges and lead flashing, with open verges instead of skews and putts. There are bipartite timber catslide dormers to the rear elevation, with flat slated cheeks. Single cast-iron Carron lights are positioned centrally on each cottage roof near the eaves. The rainwater goods are painted cast-iron. Unusual whinstone rubble end stacks rise instead of skews near the apex of the front roof pitch. The stacks have sandstone neck copes with paired replacement cans. A shared, squat stack made of similar materials and design is centrally located on the roofline, featuring four cans.

The interior was not inspected in 2002, but the cottages are currently in residential use.
