Description
These are two cottages located 180 metres south of North Farmhouse, dating from the late 17th century. They are timber framed with rendered wattle and daub infill and feature thatched roofs. The cottages are one storey high with a dormer attic. There are two central doors and two three-light casement windows. An eaves dormer, also under thatch, includes a casement window. There is a ridge stack to the left of centre and a second internal gable stack on the right. The south gable has been rebuilt in brick, while the north gable has been partly rebuilt. The interior retains complete timber framing.
