ILSINGTON HIGHER BRIMLEY SX 77 NE 3/102 Cobstone Cottage -
GV II
Cottage. Late C17 or early C18, with later additions at rear. Roughcast stone with slated roof. In left-hand gable a thick projecting chimneystack with projecting course of slatestone as a cap, this being surmounted by a later roughcast shaft; the stack is believed to have belonged originally to the adjoining cottage, since demolished. Smaller roughcast stack on right-hand gable. Original part of cottage has only 1 ground storey room at present, but probably had 2 originally. 2 storeys, 2 widely spaced windows wide,with centre doorway. C20 wood casement windows with 6 panes per light; the upper storey windows, which rise as dormer gables above the eaves-line, have 4-paned transom lights. C20 plank door, the top half opening separately; C20 gabled porch. Interior has rough, partly chamfered upper-floor beam in ground storey. Fireplace in right-hand gable appears to have been reconstructed in old granite blocks, but plain right-hand jamb is probably original. 1 original roof-truss survives, with plain feet to the principal rafters and peg-holes suggesting that a collar was originally pegged to the face of the truss. Included for group value.
