Description
Nos 9 to 12 on The Green are a row of four estate cottages built around 1850. They are constructed of yellow brick, with the upper floor finished in pebbledash render and featuring applied timbering. The upper floor slightly projects and is supported by wooden brackets, topped with a thatched roof. The cottages are designed in a picturesque style, symmetrical to the green, with two half-hipped gables set forward and similar end gables set back.
The buildings are two storeys high and feature four windows with mullion and transom casements; the original lead lattice cames are preserved only in the upper part of each light. The front gables include four-light canted bays on the ground floor, also with thatched roofs. There are two half-dormers and four doorways located in the side walls, each with thatched lean-to porches supported by timber posts and boarded entrance doors. The bargeboards are decorated with pierced lobes, and there are four rectangular stacks with grouped flues. These cottages are part of a model village of estate workers' homes built around the green for Sir Morton Peto, designed by John Thomas.
