23,25, FINKIN LANE

No. 23 and 25 Finkin Lane are a pair of cottages dating from the 17th century, with some alterations. They have painted stone walls and a rear that is rendered, topped with a pantile roof. The cottages are two storeys high and feature a four-bay front. The third bay has a quoined entrance with an ogee-arched ornamental stone lintel, and there is another entrance to the left. The first and second bays have horizontal-sliding sash windows, while the third and fourth bays have new wooden casements designed as cross-windows, which appear to replace earlier windows. There is a near-central brick stack and an additional stack at the right end. The interior has not been inspected.
