Description
Waterfall Cottages is a terrace of six cottages built in 1848, constructed from hammer-dressed coursed stone with a pitched stone slate roof. The gabled copings sit on moulded footstones, and there are stone brackets and six ashlar stacks with moulded dressings. The cottages are two storeys high.
On the south elevation, the central section protrudes slightly and features a gabled roof with a roll-top gable finial. The datestone indicates the year of construction as 1848. The ground floor of this central section has two doorways with stone quoins, a shallow false arch, and a hood mould. Above, on the first floor, there is a two-light stone mullioned window. Flanking the central section are three cottages on each side, each with a doorway featuring stone surrounds and tie-stones, a shallow false arch, one chamfered and recessed stone mullioned window on the ground floor, and a similar three-light stone mullioned window on the first floor. One of the ground floor windows has been altered to a two-light design.
On the north elevation, each dwelling has a later doorway and one three-light chamfered and recessed stone mullioned window on the ground floor. The first floor features one chamfered two-light stone mullioned window (with one mullion removed) and one later single light window. The east and west gables each have projecting chimney stacks with raking offsets.
