Description

The Cock-loft is a small single-storey croglofft cottage dating from the 18th century. It features granite rubble walls and large stone lintels. The roof is small and slated, with rendered end-chimneys and dripstones. There is a roof-light to the loft on the right and a larger stack on the left. The south front has a central half-glazed door flanked by small 4-pane hornless sash windows on each side. There is a small addition on the west end and a small 20th-century rear addition.
