Description

1 Orley House is a cottage featuring a 2-storey wing that has a roof line continuous with the main range, and the front of the wing is slightly set back. The front facade includes a boarded door on the left and a narrow 6-pane window on the right, both with flat heads. The upper storey has a 2-light wooden casement window in the center.

Inside, there is a single room in the main range, which has a replaced straight staircase located in its original position at the outer rear corner. There is a 20th-century fireplace on the outer wall. The wing was previously used as a washroom and service area, and there is an outside toilet located further to the east.
