Description
Birnam and Millbrick are two early 20th-century houses designed in a traditional style by Birmingham architect C E Bateman. No 3 features panelling from an 18th-century church at Water Orton. Both houses are constructed of red brick with stone dressings and have tiled roofs that include two gabled dormers. No 1 has a gable and semi-octagonal bay windows on the ground floor, along with a polygonal chimneystack on the left side. The buildings are two storeys high with attics and have a corbelled band at the first floor level.
