Church Cottage Church Cottages The Hollies

The property comprises a row of houses, probably dating from the 17th century, with alterations in the 18th century and a later 18th-century addition to the right. The building is timber-framed, with exposed principal posts and red brick infilling to the ground floor. The first floor is plastered to the front, while the right return is weatherboarded on both floors. The long left side of the wing is stone on the ground floor and timber-framed above. The right addition is red brick to the ground floor and has red and grey mathematical tiles to the first floor. The roofs are tiled.

The main range has approximately five timber-framed bays and a rear return wing of at least three bays. A shorter, late 18th-century addition projects at right angles to, and towards the rear of, the wing. The building is two storeys and has attics. The main range has a half-hipped roof to the left, a hipped roof to the right, and a hip returning to the rear. The right addition has a gabled roof with eaves similar to the main range, but a lower ridge. Brick gable end stacks are present, along with a ridge stack and a rear brick stack. Dormers are visible on the main range and right return.

The fenestration is irregular, with a mix of casement windows. A boarded door with a flat bracketed hood leads to No. 3. A ribbed door with a rectangular light serves No. 2, and a half-glazed door with a plain-tile canopy, bearing late 18th-century lettering "Hats by Retail", is located near No. 1. A rear door to The Hollies is positioned in the centre of the main range. A half-glazed door with a flat corniced hood serves Church Cottage. A rear lean-to is attached to the right addition. A gas bracket is fixed above a ground-floor window.

The interior of the right end bay of the main range features chamfered beams, gunstock-jowled posts, and curved first-floor tension-braces. Exposed framing is also present in the front bays of the wing, alongside a stone stack bearing the date 1742. Daub infilling is visible. A first-floor room towards the centre of the main range has shaped gunstock jowls and re-used ovolo-moulded timber. Face-halved wall-plate scarf joints are located at the centre and right end of the main range and the wing. The right end of the main range was likely used as a milliner's towards the end of the 18th century.
