Description

Smithy Cottage is a storeyed end chimney house with a 20th-century extension to the right. It is built of limestone rubble and has a slate roof. The primary end chimney is located on the left and features simple moulded capping. There is a 20th-century brick chimney in the center, which replaced a former gable end chimney. The entrance is on the far left and has a boarded door. To the right of the entrance is a modern wooden window with four panes, followed by another window with eight panes. On the first floor, there are two modern windows with twelve panes, one of which is a sliding sash copy. The rear elevation has similar four- and twelve-pane windows on the ground and first floors, respectively, along with a small modern window in the first-floor gable end. A short modern addition is flush with the main block and has a continuously-roofed design, featuring a sliding sash window. To the right, there is a stepped-down square modern conservatory with a pitched slate roof and small pane glazing.

Inside, the cottage has an unusual lobby entry plan, with the primary entrance on the far left opening onto the internal breast of the left-hand end chimney. The former hall contains a large end fireplace with a flat oak bressummer that is chamfered and ogee-stopped. This bressummer has a worn, painted date of 1726 and the initials I. R to the left. The ceiling in the first bay of the former hall is simple, with unadorned joists.
