Description
122 and 124 Nunnery Street are two cottages dating from the 17th or 18th century, which were restored in the 20th century. They are constructed with a timber frame and plastered exterior, topped with a half hipped roof covered in red plain tiles, featuring two gabled dormers. A central red brick chimney stack is present. The front has a two-window range with 20th-century casements that include transoms. There is a central round-headed porchway with a brick arch above, leading to recessed 20th-century doors. The timber frame is exposed on the interior.
