Description
Bank Cottages comprise three cottages likely originating as a continuous timber-framed building dating from the 16th century. The building was later refaced with tiles and divided into separate dwellings. Narrow timbering is visible in the south wall. The cottages are two storeys high. A jetty, supported by corner posts known as dragon posts, is present. The roof has been replaced with tiles and is hipped. The front has three casement windows and three single doorcases.
