Shepherds Hey And Glencote

Two cottages stand on the north side of Burmington The Lane, dating to the late 18th century. The cottage on the left is built of squared, coursed limestone with a coped gable, while the cottage to the right is constructed of brick in a Flemish bond pattern. Both have stone slate roofs; the left cottage has an ashlar end stack, and the right has a ridge stack. The cottages are one storey high with an attic, originally featuring a three-window front. The layout consists of a two-unit plan on the left and a three-unit plan on the right. The left cottage has a 20th-century door in the left gable end and two 20th-century casement windows to the front, along with 20th-century dormers. The right cottage features a plank stable door with a gabled hood in the centre, flanked by 20th-century windows set within original openings with segmental heads. A further two-light casement window with a segmental head is situated to the left. Two large gabled dormers with 20th-century casements are also present. The interiors were not inspected. The cottages are listed primarily for their group value.
