69, 71, 73 and 75, Queen Street

Nos 69, 71, 73, and 75 on Queen Street are three houses that were originally four cottages, built in the early 18th century. They are timber framed and plastered, featuring a weatherboarded dado and a red plain tile roof. The buildings are two storeys high and have a four-window range, which includes two original horizontal sliding sashes with glazing bars and two 20th-century casements. There are three original doorways with flat board heads supported by shaped brackets, although the doorway to number 71 has been replaced with a small 20th-century casement beneath the original head. At the rear, there is a 19th-century weatherboarded lean-to extension with a grey slate roof. The original red brick chimney stacks remain intact. These cottages, along with nos 65 and 67, are part of an important group that includes the Church, Almshouses, and Woolpack Inn.
