Morhouse And Moor Cottage

A pair of cottages, likely dating from the 18th century or earlier, was significantly altered in the early 19th century and later received a late 19th-century shopfront along with 20th-century extensions to the south. The cottages were possibly originally timber-framed, but the ground floor is now externally red brick, mainly painted, while the first floor is tile-hung. The roof is tiled, with a half-hipped section to the northeast and a hipped section with a gablet to the southwest, featuring three brick chimneystacks. The two-storey front elevation has four windows. The windows are mainly 20th-century casements of a traditional style. The front includes four three-light casements to the first floor, one four-light casement to the ground floor, two doorcases (one with a flat hood), and a late 19th-century shopfront with two square bays, shop windows with cambered heads, and a central cambered doorcase with a half-glazed door. The southwest elevation displays unpainted brickwork to the ground floor in an English garden wall bond, four casement windows with leaded lights, and a projecting brick 20th-century extension. Other features include a lean-to brick extension, two 20th-century conservatories, and a weatherboarded northeast extension with an external brick chimneystack.
