Description

Nos. 135, 136, and 137 on Church Row are a terrace of three cottages built in the 17th century as one house. They underwent significant alterations around 1860 when they were divided into separate cottages, with further major changes made in 1985 and 1986. The cottages are timber-framed and encased in 19th-century red brick, with an underbuilding of the same material. The roofs are pantiled, likely thatched until the 19th century, and feature three gabled 19th-century casement dormers with serpentine bargeboards. There are 19th-century axial and gable end chimneys made of red brick with splayed pilasters. The windows are three-light small-pane casements, alternating with three entrance doorways that have four-centred arches; the doors are boarded and battened, equipped with ornate wrought iron strap hinges. Inside, there is a 17th-century wind-braced clasped-purlin roof and other remnants of the original framing. The rear of the cottages has two-storey gabled wings added in 1985.
