Description
Nos 9 and 11 on Mill Road are a pair of cottages built in the 19th century, specifically after 1805. They feature a colour-washed rough cast exterior over a timber frame, sitting on a high brick plinth. The cottages have a half-hipped thatched roof and a four-room layout, with the gable end facing the road. On the south elevation, the ground floor includes one two-light and two three-light casement windows, while the attic has three dormers with two-light horizontal sashes that have glazing bars. The right-hand cottage has a hipped thatched porch from the 20th century, and there is a plank door on the left-hand cottage. A central red brick ridge stack serves one room in each cottage.
