Description

Middle Carr Farm consists of a row of four cottages, which may have originally been eight back-to-back cottages, built around 1800. The cottages are constructed from watershot coursed sandstone blocks and feature a stone slate roof with three chimneys along the ridge and one at the left gable. The design is a double depth plan with four bays, with each cottage occupying one bay.

The cottages are two storeys high, with doorways located on the right-hand side of each, featuring boarded doors with plain stone surrounds. Each cottage has one stepped triple-light window on each floor and a 2-light flush-mullion window at the first floor above the door. The rear of the cottages has similar doorways, and the windows are mostly square with glazing bars, arranged in a slightly irregular pattern. As of 1984, Nos. 2 and 4 were undergoing internal renovations.
