OUTSIDE:
 The grounds are predominantly sloping, with the front garden extending down to the road, where a pedestrian gate provides access to a flight of steps leading up to the cottage. The remainder of the grounds lie to the side and rear of the property and comprise a mixture of wooded and grassed areas. There is also a small, dilapidated outbuilding, together with a separate rectangular parcel of land divided from the main grounds by an old bridleway.

  
 
 The substantial stone outbuilding, measuring approximately 3.59m x 5.28m (11' 9" x 17' 4"), is in a derelict condition and adjoins the neighbouring cottage. Although the building is roofless, it retains an original mill wheel positioned centrally within the structure.

  
 
 There may also be potential to create a driveway and parking area accessed directly from the lane, subject to the necessary local authority consents and approvals.

DIRECTIONS:
 From Monmouth, take the A40 dual carriageway towards Ross-on-Wye. After a short distance, pass the services and lorry park on your left and take the left spur into Whitchurch. Turn first right and then right again over the dual carriageway. At the roundabout, take the second exit signposted Symonds Yat West. Follow this road for approximately one mile, passing the Wye Knot Inn and some roadside garages, and turn sharp right just before The Paddocks Hotel. Follow this single-track lane for approximately 500 yards and the cottage will be seen set up on the left-hand side.
