Description
These cottages, now two separate dwellings, date back to at least the late 16th or early 17th century, although a datestone reading 1535 appears to be a later addition. The construction is a mix of rubble and knapped flint, with brick dressings and a red pantiled roof. The cottages appear to have been built in two phases. The western section has two casement windows on both the ground and first floors, while the eastern section has a single casement window on each floor. All windows are 19th century, with two vertical glazing bars. A 20th-century door is present on the western side. The cottages feature brick dressings, quoins marking the junction between the two builds (the eastern one being slightly forward), and brick stitching on the western build. There are two partly blocked brick windows on the ground floor, and two low, long windows at eaves level in the centre and eastern sections. A sundial, bearing the date 1535, is affixed to the first floor of the western cottage. The gables have brick coped parapets, the roof is steeply pitched, and there are stacks at the west end and the former west end of the eastern build.
