  2. I think that's correct. Bank Cottage seems to have a long history. I think its location is shown better on this map from 1860: It can be easily seen that the building matches the photo, standing at right angles to the road and the terraced houses beyond it. I don't know much about it but I can see from the 1911 census that it was small as it then housed two families - one in 3 rooms and the other in 2 rooms.
