Description

Bluebell Cottage is part of a terrace of three cottages, dating from the 19th century, with possible earlier origins. A small building is indicated on the site in the 1840 tithe map, originally functioning as a house or public house with an adjoining cart shed to the right. The cart shed was later converted into a cottage, with the entrance infilled with a door and window, and a stone end stack added. A further unit appears to have been added to the left end.

The cottages are two storeys high, constructed of rubble stone with a slate roof featuring red ridge tiles and a cusped eaves cornice. The right cottage has a stone end stack, the central cottage has a stone ridge stack, and the left cottage has a brick end stack. A butt joint indicates that the left cottage is a later addition. Each cottage has a door on the right and a window on the left, with planked front doors, the left and right doors featuring overlights. The central and right cottages have twelve-pane horned sash windows, with the right cottage having a wider window. Between these two is a small four-pane window of earlier origin. The left cottage has a two-light casement window. All openings have flat arched stone heads, but those of the right cottage are under a wide segmental arch that originally formed the cart entrance. Each cottage features a two-light multi-pane casement window on the upper storey, aligned above the lower storey windows. A large lean-to structure is located at the rear, which includes a balcony and dormers, while there are no openings in the gable ends. The eastern gable end is rendered.

Access to the interior was not available at the time of inspection on December 11, 1997.
