Description

Ann Cottage and Grange Cottage is a house that has been converted into two cottages, forming part of a terrace of three cottages. Originally built in the 17th century, it was altered in the 19th century. The building is timber framed, plastered, and has a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. It features four bays facing northwest, with a central stack and rear extensions that have catslide roofs covered in slate. The structure has two storeys and attics.

Ann Cottage has two 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor and one on the first floor, along with a 20th-century door located in a 20th-century gabled porch on the left return wall. Grange Cottage has a two-window range of 20th-century casements and a 20th-century door in the side of a lean-to porch, with a dado of 20th-century brick laid in stretcher bond. The building displays jowled posts, primary straight bracing, stop-chamfered transverse beams with lamb's tongue stops, plain joists of vertical section, and a clasped purlin roof. Each cottage features a large wood-burning hearth.
