Description

St Michael's consists of three 18th century cottages located on Church Square. These cottages are two storeys high and feature attic dormers, with one window each. The fronts are weatherboarded and topped with tiled roofs. The glazing bars are intact, and the doorways are adorned with narrow pilasters and small flat hoods. St Michael's, along with the Water Tower and other nearby properties, forms a cohesive group.
