Description
Knights Fold is a cottage range dated 1752, located on the north-west side of Great Horton Road. It forms one side of a fold and is constructed from irregularly coursed sandstone "bricks" with a stone slate roof. The windows, likely altered in the late 18th century or early 19th century, feature two-light square mullion and single-light squared frames. There are paired squared jamb doorways and an oval date plaque with the initials SC.
