According to English Heritage this is one of two mid 18C cottages with early 19C alterations. The south elevation has two 4-light and two 3-light double chamfered stone mullioned windows to the ground floor, and to the first floor two 8-light stone mullioned windows. There is also a late 18C cottage to the eastwith a 6-light stone mullioned window. To the north are vaulted stone outbuildings with datestone (possibly not in original location): H W M 1758. According to the Colne Valley Sculpture Trail (text copied from http://www.mapfodder.com/sculptureTrail.pdf ): "10: Queensgate Consultants- Proposal: Derelict House (Stone, slate, mortar, rubble) This, the largest work on the trail, is a house of recent construction whose sole purpose from the outset was to be derelict. This is typical of the work of Queensgate Consultants - an artists' co-operative from North London- whose "Proposals" are in fact completed works. They comment on built-in obsolescence by creating major pieces whose completion marks the end of their intended use. An inspection of the interior will reveal the level of detail they apply to this end."
