Constructed from ashlar stone, they have a tiled roof. The central section of the cottages is topped with a castellated parapet, while two projections on either side have crow-stepped gables. There is a brick eaves and a cogging cornice between the sections. The windows are casements with one or two lights, featuring depressed pointed heads and decorative glazing made up of small square or diamond-shaped panes.
