82-88, THE AVENUE

Nos 82-88 on The Avenue are a row of seven estate worker's cottages built in the early 19th century, likely designed by Peter Atkinson in accordance with a plan by John Carr for Edward Lascelles, the 1st Earl of Harewood. The cottages are constructed from hammer-dressed stone and feature a stone slate roof. The building is L-shaped and consists of two storeys with 11 by 9 bays. Each cottage has a doorway with an overlight positioned to one side of the windows, which are adorned with wedge-shaped monolithic lintels that have false voussoirs, and the windows also feature projecting sills. Cottages 86 and 87 have paired doorways. The roof is hipped and includes two ashlar ridge stacks for each range, along with a smaller stack for No 82, which has its entrance on the right-hand return and consists of three bays with a central doorway.
