A rectangular building measuring some 9m x 5m and orientated approximately east/west is shown on OS 1st edition 25in. The cottage has a porch to its western elevation and a small separate building to the east. Tracks lead southwards towards the boathouse (NPRN 525234) and to the former warehouses and coal yard on the south side of Monkton Bridge. The cottage's name had been changed by 2nd edition OS mapping to 'Cunnigar' (rabbit warren?). Modern aerial photography appears to show a roofless 3-bayed building within an area of scrub.
