What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey estate worker's house, built c.1890, with gabled entrance porch and lean-to shed to south gable. No longer in use. Pitched tiled roof with rendered chimneystacks, terracotta ridge tiles and cast-iron rainwater goods. Pitched slate roof to porch with decorative timber barge-boards. Roughcast-rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with timber casement diamond-paned windows with stone sills. Windows to entrance porch with stone lintels. Timber battened and panelled doors. Walled rear yard.
This modest house, set back from Knockvicar Road on the eastern limits of the former Rockingham Demesne, may have been an estate worker's cottage associated with the former estate. Its simple form, with projecting gable fronted porch, differs from the surrounding vernacular structures. The house remains intact and is embellished by the diamond-paned windows.
