Description
A row of four cottages, built in the earlier 18th century. The cottages are timber-framed, with a rendered exterior and a plain tile roof. They are two storeys high, and feature projecting gable-end stacks, as well as a central brick ridge stack. The window arrangement is irregular, with four two-light casement windows on each floor. A half-glazed door is located at the left end, leading to the first cottage. The second cottage has a panelled door set within a reeded architrave, which is decorated with paterae and a short flat hood supported on paired modillions. To the right of centre is a boarded door, and a half-glazed door completes the right end of the row. The interior remains uninspected.
