Description
This is a house row, likely dating back to an earlier period, with a 19th-century facade. A further addition was constructed in the late 18th or early 19th century, and alterations occurred in the 20th century. The left section of the row is patched with red and grey brick in a Flemish bond pattern, while the ground floor of the right addition is similarly constructed, with tile hanging above. The roofs are covered with plain tiles, with a steeply pitched roof over the left section, and higher eaves to the right. Gable end stacks are present on both the left and right, and a central ridge stack exists on the left section. The building has an irregular fenestration of seven windows, including four 3-light leaded casements and one 2-light window on the left, and one 2-light and one 3-light window on the right. A ribbed door, set within a 20th-century brick porch, leads to Petite Cottage on the left end. Another ribbed door sits beneath the stack, leading to Bless Cottage. Weavers Cottage, on the right, features a narrow half-glazed door to the left and a central ribbed door with a flat bracketed hood. A 2-storey weatherboarded rear wing extends from the right side of the building, with a multipane window visible. The interior has not been inspected.
