Description

These three cottages are located on the north-west side of The Square in Wollaton, Nottingham. They were likely built in the late 18th century and altered in the 20th century. The cottages are constructed of red brick with gabled and hipped plain tile roofs and have large ridge and gable stacks. They are two storeys high with a three-window range. A rendered plinth is present. The windows are glazing bar casements with two lights. Above the original plank doors, which are segment-headed, are three flat-headed windows. The cottages are probably the remains of a longer row.
