Cadw's description
Location
Situated near centre of village at right end of short terraced row on now-blocked junction with main road.
History
End house of a terrace of three estate cottages, similar to those in the longer Church Row, built c. 1840, but buildings marked on the site on a map of 1829. The row was named for the C17 Bull Inn, which stood at right angles to No 1, demolished for new road in 1929-30.
Exterior
End terrace cottage, a mirrored pair with No 2, local rubble stone with deep-eaved slate roof and renewed brick right end stack. Two storeys, one-window range with door to left. Windows are timber-mullioned with diagonally set square panes. Tooled chamfered jambs, stone sill and lintel. Ground floor window has sandstone ashlar moulded hoodmould. First floor two-light under eaves, ground floor three-light. Tudor-arched doorway with tooled stone voussoirs and renewed board door.
Interior
Interior not inspected.
Reason for designation
Included for its special architectural interest as part of an unusual terrace of Tudor style estate cottages.
