Description
Park Cottages are a terrace of four, two-story, two-window cottages, likely dating to the early 19th century. They probably represent a conversion of an earlier farm building, possibly associated with a Monastic Grange. The cottages are constructed of local sandstone, with largely coursed rubble walls, later end gables of brown brick, brick chimneys, and a grey Welsh slate roof with a sandstone ridge. Window and door openings were created by cutting into the pre-existing stonework. Three cottages retain their original small timber casement windows and ledged and battened front doors. Traces of slit windows, similar to those found in adjacent Grange buildings, are present. A sandstone rubble garden wall runs along the line of what was once the Grange boundary.
