Description

Hillside Cottages is a pair of cottages dating from the 18th century, with 20th-century restoration. They feature a scantling timber frame, weatherboarded on the front and rear, with brick infill and additions on the sides. The cottages have an old plain tile roof and are two storeys high with two symmetrical bays and an outshot at one end. At the near ends, there are small gabled wooden porches. The windows are casement style, and the roof is hipped.
