Cottage, still in use, built in circa 1900. It is a single-storey and attic, three-bay cottage, paired with Number 23 Slug Road (NO88NE0197). The cottage is constructed from heavily stugged Aberdeen bond ashlar with tooled ashlar dressings, coursed, squared rubble to the sides and rear, base and eaves courses, decorative cast-iron finials to the dormer windows, stone mullions and chamfered arrises. The grey slate roof has coped ashlar gablehead stacks with a full-complement of polygonal cans, ashlar-coped skews with mitre skewputts and square-section, cast-iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers and fixings. The south-west principal elevation is symmetrical. The centre bay has a part-glazed, nine-panelled timber door with flanking pilasters, narrow outer lights and pilastered jambs, all under a dentilled cornice and three-part fanlight worded 'ROWANDALE'. Above is a small piended wallhead dormer window. The flanking bays each have a canted dormer window under a reducing slate roof, and a smaller central dormer with a polygonal roof. Adjoining the western corner is a stepped ashlar garage with a vertically-boarded, part-glazed timber door. The elevation broad, gabled south-east elevation has single windows to the outside bays. Low, coped, harled boundary walls have ironwork gates.
