Description
Severn Cottages is an 18th-century brick house that has been painted and partly rendered. It features a tiled roof with gabled ends and is L-shaped in plan. The building has one storey and an attic, with two and three window ranges. The windows are casements with glazing bars and margin lights set in segmental arched openings. There are gabled dormers at the eaves that contain old leaded-pane casements with Gothic heads. Tall brick stacks with cornices are present on the structure. A late 19th-century addition can be found at the rear.
