Waterloo Cottage

Detached five-bay single-and-two-storey house, built c.1830, with veranda, gabled end bay and canted-bay to front elevation. Pitched artificial slate roof with cut sandstone chimneystacks. Pebbledashed walls with smooth rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with replacement uPVC windows having some concrete and some limestone sills. Four-centred arch window opening to gabled end bay with timber tracery and lattice glazing bars. Round-headed blind niche to front elevation. Double-leaf timber and glazed door with timber surround set in veranda with cast-iron pillars. Replacement timber gate set to cut limestone gate piers to front of site.

Architectural design and detailing are immediately apparent in the unusual design of this building. The verandah to the front elevation is an uncommon feature, this along with the blind niche and label mouldings enlivening the appearance of the building. Although some windows have been replaced, the house retains its character which is enhanced by the retention of the four-centred window with lattice glazing.
