Description

The Gardens and Garage Flat is a pair of cottages built around 1912 by Sir Edwin Lutyens in the Neo-Vernacular style. The cottages feature red brick with tiled lintels, some tile hanging on the first floor, and a tiled roof that is hipped at the rear with a partial catslide over an outshot to the north. The structure is U-shaped with two wings at the rear and two gables facing north, and it has one and a half storeys.

On the north front, there is a flat-topped eaves dormer off-centre to the right, which contains a 6-light leaded casement window. There is a central hipped dormer with a 2-light leaded casement, and ridge stacks positioned off-centre to the left and right at the rear. To the left, there is a 6-light leaded attic casement, and to the right, a 4-light leaded casement. The ground floor features a 2-light and a 4-light leaded casement to the left of the outshut, and a 2-light leaded casement to the right. There are half-glazed doors in the left-hand return wall of the outshot and at the far right, along with an arched through passage off-centre to the right of the outshot.

The east front includes two hipped dormers and two ground floor circular windows set in sunken square panels. There are mid-20th century garage doors located at the rear.
