Full Description
{1} The cottage is positioned immediately adjacent to the footway on a narrow strip of land suggesting that the dwelling originated as a ‘squatter’s cottage’ built on the roadside waste ground. The 1885 Ordnance Survey map shows that it was one of a row of cottages that were subsequently demolished. Interest is added to the building by its east gable which is formed by the end wall of a stone cottage that it was previously adjoined to.
