Description
The Estate Office Oak Cottages, located on Altrincham Road in Wilmslow, is a former terrace of eight cottages, now comprising six cottages and an office. Built around 1820 for Samuel Greg, the building underwent 20th-century restoration. It features orange brick in an English garden wall bond and a Welsh slate roof, with seven brick chimneys. The structure has a long rectangular plan, consisting of six two-unit cottages and a three-bay house at the left end.
The east front is two stories high, with 15 bays. The windows are restored two-light iron small-pane casements with stone sills, set under cambered brick heads. The board doors, approached by flights of four steps with wrought iron balusters, also have similar brick heads. Three of the doors are sheltered by hoods—one gabled and two lean-to—supported by wooden brackets. Each basement has a small-pane window. The left three bays feature four-pane sashes flanking an elliptical brick head above a four-panelled door, which has a gabled hood above it.
This terrace and similar ones are part of the second phase of the village's development, responding to significant expansion of the mill.
