Description
A pair of 18th-century estate cottages are located on Wilstead Road. They are timber-framed buildings with pebbledash render and thatched roofs. Each cottage originally had a 2-room plan and 2 storeys, with gable-end red brick stacks. Number 200 has been extended to the north by one room. Each cottage features a central front door and two 2-light casement windows on each floor; the ground-floor windows have wooden shutters. The leading remains in the windows of number 200 and one window of number 199. The additional north bay is lit by casements in the north gable end.
