Description
This is a terrace of five houses located on the east side of Church Street in Rickmansworth. The houses date from the early 19th century and are constructed of stock brick, with a slate roof. Each house is two storeys high and has a single window. Each bay has an entrance to the right, above which is a rectangular fanlight. The windows are large, 16-pane glazing bar sashes set in deep reveals. A continuous verandah shelters the ground floor. Five axial ridge stacks are located behind each window. The rear of the terrace features glazing bar sashes, some of which have been altered, and dentilled brick eaves. At the rear of each cottage are outshuts with catslide roofs. The interiors have not been inspected.
