Numbers 136-150 Including the Attached and Associated Back Yard Walls

This is a terrace of eight colliery workers' cottages built around 1891-1894, possibly by Brewill & Baily. The cottages are constructed from red brick with some ashlar dressings and feature a Welsh slate roof with decorative ridge cresting and brick ridge stacks. They are two storeys high with attics, showcasing a decorative first-floor band and a sawtooth eaves cornice. The cottages are designed as symmetrical pairs, with each pair slightly stepped up the hillside, which is reflected in the roof levels. Each pair has two 3-light casement windows set in ashlar surrounds, with doorways that have ashlar lintels, panelled doors, and overlights. Above these, there are two 2-light cross casements under stop-chamfered ashlar lintels. Each pair also features gabled dormers with 2-light casements beneath chamfered ashlar lintels. The casements have small pane glazing. Attached walls at the rear enclose back yards. These houses are part of the 'Model Village' built by the Bolsover Colliery Company to accommodate its workforce, following progressive Garden Suburb principles of planning and design.
