GV II

Pair of cottages, now cafe with dwelling over, with attached barn. Probably late C17 and early to mid C18. White-washed roughly coursed rubble with quoins; stone slate roof. Linear plan on roughly east-west axis facing south, the left cottage single-depth and 1 unit each plus a back extension, the right-hand cottage double-depth; and the barn continued at the west end of the left cottage. EXTERIOR: the cottages are 2-storeyed (with 3-storey proportions), 2 windows each, with a plinth. The doorways almost adjoin in the centre of this range, both are square-headed but that to the right is taller. The left cottage has a rectangular window at ground floor with a C20 small-paned top-hung casement, and 2 square windows at 1st-floor level, both now top-hung casements imitating 6-pane sashes. The right-hand cottage has a large square shop window at ground floor, with glazing bars, and 2 rectangular windows above, both now top-hung casements imitating 12-pane sashes. Large square chimney on the ridge at junction with barn and overlapping it (indicating that it is either corbelled or extruded), with a stone slate band and a flat stone slate cap; gable chimney at junction with Dolly's Cottage to right. The barn continued at the same height to the left, 3 bays, has a doorway at the junction, a segmental-headed wagon doorway in the centre, with long rubble voussoirs, and some blocked slit-breathers. INTERIOR: the left cottage has a sunk floor, and a pair of large chamfered lateral beams; the right-hand cottage has a pair of smaller chamfered axial beams, a very large rectangular C18 fireplace with a corbelled lintel and moulded cornice, containing a mid C19 iron range with cranes (etc); and, flanking the fireplace, complete suites of built-in C18 cupboards with fielded and shaped panels. At 1st floor the left cottage has a lateral beam (boxed), the ceiling to the east of it being noticeably lower than to the west: perhaps an indication of a former partial attic loft.
