Description
Ebury House and St Mary's Cottage are a pair of estate cottages built in 1899 by John Douglas for the first Duke of Westminster. They are constructed from orange brick with stone dressings and blue diapering, topped with a Westmorland green slate roof. The cottages are handed, meaning they are mirror images of each other.
At the center, there are two boarded doors set in a simple sandstone case. The lintel above No. 65 is inscribed with "W", while No. 67 has "18 : AD : 99". Each side of the doorcase features a basket-arched 1-light window in a stone surround. The front parlour of each cottage has a casement window with four basket-arched lights. There is also a boarded door for yard entry in a flush-quoined rectangular opening for each cottage.
A moulded string course runs along the first floor, accompanied by a band of diapering. Each cottage has two mullioned 3-light bedroom windows beneath stone-coped gables, and all windows are leaded. Each cottage features a lozenge-shaped chimney positioned behind the ridge. The roof rises from left to right in line with the slope of the street, with the party wall extending to a coped parapet and coped gables at each end. The rear of the cottages is simply designed. The interiors were not inspected.
