Description
Church Cottages is a row of four houses built in 1872. The buildings are constructed of brick with blue brick bands and stone dressings, topped with a fishscale slate roof featuring tile cresting. They are two storeys high and consist of four bays. The end bays have timbered jettied first floors beneath gables. The ground floor has 2:3:3:2-light mullioned windows with sashes, and the central bays have relieving arches. The first floor features casements with leaded glazing in the upper lights, and the central bays include gabled half-dormers. There are central paired entrances beneath a hipped slate canopy, with half-glazed doors. The cottages have four clustered stacks, and the returns feature gabled timber porches and timber framing on the first floor. Notably, the first bay's first floor window has a 20th-century casement.
