Riverdale Cottage

Semi-detached three-bay single-storey former estate worker's house, built c.1845. The façade is finished in painted render, whilst the pitched gable-ended overhanging roof is covered in artificial slate and has a rendered chimneystack with pronounced base course and cornice course. The entrance is located within a gable-ended porch and consists of a timber stable door. The windows are flat-headed and have replacement frames with top-hung openers and painted stone sills. To the rear there is a one and a half-storey return with lean-to conservatory of c.1990. To front there is a small garden enclosed by a low rendered wall.

This house, along with its largely matching and probably contemporary neighbours to the north and south, forms part of an attractive mid 19th-century grouping which, despite alterations, remains a valuable asset to the Newcastle streetscape.
