Statement of Interest

A traditional early 19th century cottage, situated at a prominent position on Main Street, and of great value to the streetscape. This was formerly the bakery for Dunlop. Bread was baked in the outbuilding to the rear, and sold from a shop in what is now one of the front rooms of the house. The end bay to the East appears to be a later addition, but seems to appear on the 1st edition OS map.
