Description
This is a row of cottages originally built in the early 19th century as farmworkers' housing. Number 7 incorporates an earlier 17th-century timber-framed cottage with a thatched roof and an original ridge stack. Numbers 1, 3, and 5 are two-storey buildings constructed of red brick with slate roofs and tall ridge stacks. They contain five first-floor horizontal sliding sash windows with glazing bars, set within cambered arches. There are six similar windows on the front, plus a canted shop bay window with a slate roof at Number 3. Four panelled doors provide access to the cottages, although the doorway to Number 1 has been blocked. The buildings are listed for their group value with ‘The Plough’ public house on Caxton Road.
