Description

Stone Cottages are a pair of cottages dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with later extensions added to the rear. They are constructed from random flint and stone, featuring red brick dressings, and have a pantiled roof. The cottages are two storeys high and have a two-window range with three-light casements set beneath segmental arches. There are two boarded doors. At the rear, there are both two-storey and single-storey brick extensions.
