[1] Pringle Cottage is a two storeyed sandstone building, located within the Warwick and District Historical Society's museum grounds.
[1] The land on which the cottage was built was first acquired by Deed of Grant by Edwin George Rigby in November 1862.
Archibald and Mary Crawford purchased the property in 1929, and it changes hands again in 1942 when Evan James William Mason acquires it.
[1] In November 1979, the Warwick and District Historical Society took possession of the building and named the cottage after the Pringle family who operated the school.
[1] The building has a simple rectangular plan, with kitchen wing extension on the rear and a verandah on the eastern, entrance facade.
The corrugated iron gabled roof runs north south, and is partially concealed by a moulded stone parapet on the eastern facade, behind which is a box gutter.
The sandstone blocks used in the construction of Pringle Cottage are generally coursed rubble, with picked faces.
[1] The eastern facade of the cottage, which faces Dragon Street, is dominated by the ogee or double curved corrugated iron verandah, supported on chamfered timber posts.
A centrally located half glazed entrance door is flanked by two pane vertical sash window openings.
There is a stone chimney piece on the western wall, to the south of which is a small doorway leading to a corrugated iron oven recess.
A steep straight stair is on the eastern wall, and has open tread timber steps, square balusters and a simple handrail.
