Description
This is a row of cottages located on the south side of High Street in Hove, originally dating to the 18th century with an extension built shortly afterwards. The construction utilizes coursed, unknapped flints for the walls, with brick dressings and quoins, and decorative brickwork in the gable end. The roof is steeply pitched, covered in clay tiles, with two brick stacks. A lower roof ridge is visible on the left-end bay, number 50.
The original design comprised three cottages, later extended by a fourth cottage that abuts a neighboring property to the east. The cottages are two storeys high with an attic. The attic is lit by a window on the rear elevation. A two-light horizontal sliding sash window is set into the gable end. On the first floor, the second and third bays on the right have two-light horizontal sliding sashes. The other first-floor windows are 20th-century casements. The ground floor has doors with adjoining windows within cambered, quoined openings. Most of the ground floor windows are horizontal sliding sashes, with the exception of the second bay from the right, number 46. All of the cottages have late 20th-century doors.
