Description
East House Farm Cottages are a terrace of eight farm cottages, built around 1820, which now function as four dwellings and a storehouse. They were restored and converted into five cottages in the 1940s. The cottages are constructed of ashlar stone and topped with a Welsh slate roof, featuring iron railings.
The layout is L-shaped, with seven cottages stepping down the hill and the eighth cottage positioned at right angles at the bottom. All cottages are single storey. Originally, each cottage had three bays with a central boarded door and small square windows set in raised surrounds; however, only the eighth cottage retains this original appearance. The other cottages have had one window modified to two or three lights in a similar style. Cottages one, four, and six have also had their doors blocked off. The roofs are gabled with flat coping, and there are rendered end stacks with one or two shafts.
The cottages are accompanied by low walls featuring chamfered coping, as well as railings and gates with round spearhead standards and urn finials on the principal structures. Despite the alterations, this group of workers' cottages remains unusually fine and complete. They are included for their group value.
