Vintage Heritage Cottage – Shimla
Cottage3 was constructed at the turn of the last century and is one of the older surviving residences of Shimla. Its design is an adaptation from an English architectural book by R.A. "Bungalow" Briggs, a copy still present in the house.
The building is unusual in modern day Shimla because its owners, have elected to maintain the traditional Dhajji architecture.
Rather than replace the mud plastered wood and stone structure with cheaper and quicker modern cement, mud and stone masons were brought in from Hamirpur district in Himachal Pradesh and the 5 intricate layers of plaster were first stripped,
the structure repaired, and the whole then re-plastered. The exterior paint is still the traditional lime wash.
