Description
A pair of cottages dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, located on the west side of High Street, Fen Drayton. The cottages are constructed of yellow gault brick with a corrugated iron roof. They are two storeys high with attics, and include a plinth and a brick band. Steps lead to two front entrances, each featuring a boarded door set within a segmental brick arch. There are three casement windows on each floor, also set within segmental brick arches. The Royal Commission on Historical Monuments (Cambs) noted the cottages in 1950.
