Dormay Cottages

Dormay Cottages is a row of three houses built in 1904 by Ernest Newton for Richard Biddulph Martin. The cottages are constructed from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and feature a plain tiled roof. The roof has gable-end parapets and ball finials on the south front, while the rear is hipped. The design is H-shaped, with a main four-bay range running east to west, a two-bay cross-wing to the west, and a three-bay cross-wing to the east. The cottages are single-storey with an attic, which includes half-dormers and a string course at attic level that steps above the doorways.

On the south front elevation, most windows are three-light with chamfered mullions and leaded casements. The central section has two ground floor windows and two gabled half-dormers with weatherboarded gables and 3-light leaded casements. Each dormer has a rectangular stair light beneath the eaves, and below each stair light is a square-headed archway leading into a small lobby with a half-glazed door. The cross-wing gable ends have windows on both storeys, with hoodmoulds above the attic storey windows. The east cross-wing gable end has the inscription "DORMAY COTTAGES/ AD 1904" beneath the string course.

The east side of the building facing the road features a ground floor window, a central gabled half-dormer, and rectangular lights on both floors. The entrance to No 54 is located beneath the central half-dormer. At the rear of the central range are three gabled wings, and lean-to service rooms with catslide roofs are located behind the cross-wings. The building appears to have undergone little alteration since its construction.
