Description

The pair of cottages at Crossley East Hospital were built between 1902 and 1904 for staff accommodation. They are constructed of red brick with terracotta dressings and feature plain tile roofs that have shaped coped gables and gable stacks. The cottages are two storeys high and consist of four bays. Most of the windows are original glazing bar casements. In the center, there are two canted bay windows with four lights each. Above these, the shaped coped gables are pebbledashed and each has a three-light casement window. On either side of the center, there are half-glazed doors with sidelights, both covered by a catslide roof. The returns of the cottages have single and double windows on each floor, along with pebbledashed gables. At the rear, there are single-storey gabled outbuildings forming wings on each side. The interior was not accessible during the survey.
