Description
The property comprises three cottages, with the main part dating from the 18th century. The cottages are constructed of chequer brick with a hipped roof of old tiles. The south front features two dormers, each with a three-light casement window. There are two doorways with flat hoods in the centre of the ground floor, alongside a four-light casement window under a brick arch and a 20th-century three-light window on the left corner. A timber-framed gable to the right oversails on large timber brackets, with an early two-light casement window below. The west front has four bays of two, three, and four-light casements with glazing bars, and four 20th-century dormers that break the eaves. Three chimneys are present; one is central on the ridge, and the others are offset. A later bay is recessed to the left end.
