Description

A pair of attached cottages dating from the 18th century, with extensions added in the 19th and 20th centuries. The cottages are built of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a roof of handmade red clay tiles. They have a rectangular plan facing southeast. Each cottage has an external brick stack at the rear, with a complex arrangement of 19th-century extensions around them. Number 28, on the right, has a 20th-century single-storey lean-to extension, while number 30, on the left, has a 20th-century single-storey extension with a ridged roof running parallel to the main roofline. Each cottage is two storeys high. On the ground floor, each has a 20th-century sash window, with six panes per sash. The first floor has two similar sash windows, all with flat brick arches, and a casement window within a hipped dormer. Number 28 has a 20th-century four-panel door with sunburst glazing, sheltered by an 18th-century moulded flat canopy on a 20th-century flat canopy. The brickwork is pointed with cement mortar. There is a wooden dentil eaves cornice, and the main roof is hipped. The left elevation is weatherboarded on the first floor only. The 19th-century rear extensions feature weatherboarded twin gables in the centre, with lower hipped roofs on either side. Inside number 28, there are 19th and early 20th-century four-panel doors, a coal-burning grate of similar date, and a boxed axial beam. The interior of number 30 was not inspected.
