Deedas Cottage including front garden area wall to S
GV II
House. Circa early to mid C17 with circa C19 additions and C20 alterations. Rendered stone rubble. Asbestos slate hipped roof with black-glazed ridge tiles. Rendered aerial stack (formerly at gable end) towards right hand end with louvred yellow clay pot and projecting lateral stack at rear with rendered shaft with weathered set-offs. Plan: A 2 or 3-room and through passage plan, the lower end to the right heated from a gable end stack, the hall has a lateral stack at the back. The small room at the left end may be the inner room of the original house and became the entrance hall in the C20 when a doorway was inserted at the front and a staircase installed at the back in place of an earlier newel staircase. The C20 alterations involved the removal of the partitions on either side of the through passage whose front doorway was also blocked. The outshut behind the higher end is probably a C19 addition restored in the C20. The small unheated 1-room plan 2-storey addition at the lower right hand end is also a C19 addition. Exterior: storeys. Asymmetrical 4-window south front. 2 windows on the first floor and 4 windows on the ground floor, all with C20 2-light casements with glazing bars and slate sills. The original doorway at the centre is now a window and the present doorway is at the left hand end; it has a C17 plank door with moulded cover strips and is said to have come from another house nearby; a large C20 open porch with a slate hipped canopy on timber posts. Rear: 3 C20 2-light casements on the first floor, a projecting lateral stack to right of centre and a single storey lean-to outshut at the centre and right. Right hand east end has a symmetrical 3-window front with C20 casements with glazing bars and slate sills. Including wall enclosing small front garden area, probably C19, low slate rubble wall with curved right hand end and C20 palings above. Interior: The hall (formerly the central room) has a chamfered cross-beam with straight-cut stops and a blocked rear lateral fireplace. The fireplace at the lower left hand end has a C20 timber lintel. The roof has roughly fashioned principals with lapped and pegged collars.
