Description

The Cottage is a house, likely dating to the 18th century, with painted roughcast rendering, a slate roof with deep eaves, and red brick end stacks. It is two storeys high and double-fronted, featuring cambered-headed windows with hoodmoulds and renewed cross windows. The windows have slate sills. A central porch is topped with fishscale slates, ashlar ridge tiles, a finial, and bargeboards. The porch has a Tudor arch with a hoodmould, leading to an inner panelled door of five panels, one of which is glazed. Bracketed gable verges are visible. Rear extensions have been added to the ground floor, and a dormer window is incorporated into the roof. The building was not inspected.
