37, 38 AND 39, CHURCH STREET

This row of three cottages, located at 37, 38, and 39 Church Street, dates from the mid 17th century and was restored in the late 19th century for Rowland Egerton Warburton. The cottages are constructed with a brick-nogged oak frame and feature a clay tile roof. They are one storey plus attics, with three windows per storey across the row. The framing is characterized by small sections with large posts and rails, and some parts of the wall have been rebuilt in brick, particularly at the right front corner and around the doors of Nos. 38 and 39.

The cottages have inserted 19th-century small-pane casements, with Nos. 38 and 39 featuring iron opening lights. There are three gabled dormers, with the one on No. 39 being rebuilt in the 19th century. The door to No. 37 has been replaced, while Nos. 38 and 39 have oak broad-board doors adorned with ornate Arley estate hinges, and No. 39 has a latch. A flush brick chimney is located on the right gable, complete with a plinth and two separated diagonal flues, and there is a similar ridge chimney with three flues. Although the interiors were not inspected, oak beams are visible.
