Attached three-bay single-storey thatched house, built c. 1800, with flat-roofed windbreak to front (south) elevation, single-bay single-storey extension to west, built c. 2000, with pitched slate roof, two-bay single-storey extension to east with pitched slate roof. Pitched reed thatched roof with rendered chimneystack. Rendered walls to front elevation, buttressed random rubble stone wall to rear (north) elevation. Square-headed openings with two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed opening with timber battened door. Random rubble entrance piers with recent gate.
This well maintained cottage is a very good example of a traditional domestic cottage extended to facilitate modern living without detracting from the character of the original dwelling externally. The blank wall to the rear indicates an early example of this type of dwelling.
