Lea Cottage and Veale Cottage – Unlisted
The massive chimney with slate drips and the evidently raised eaves are both indications that these cottages are part of a relatively early farmhouse or cottage. It is possible that Applegarth occupies part of the footprint of the original building but it was either re-constructed or heavily modified in the 19th century.
Ordnance Survey, 2016, MasterMap (Cartographic). SDV359352.
The modern mapping does not show the subdivisions within the building, but names the dwellings Lea Cottage, Manor Cottage (previously Veale Cottage?) and Applegarth.
