Abbey Cottages

Abbey Cottages is a terrace of cottages built around 1800 and altered in the mid-19th century. The cottages are constructed of rubble with roughly-tooled quoins and door lintels, featuring cut stone window surrounds and graduated stone slate roofs. They are two storeys high with four bays. Each pair of cottages has vertical-panelled doors beneath later porches supported by cast-iron posts that carry flat slab hoods. The windows are 20th-century 9-pane casements set in mid-19th century chamfered stone surrounds. The cottages also have stepped-and-banded end and ridge stacks. The rear elevation displays 4-pane Yorkshire sashes on the first floor. The cottages are included for their group value, although the 20th-century porches at the rear are not considered of interest.
