Description
This is a timber-framed range of buildings, likely dating from the 16th century, although with 18th-century brick facades. The cottages were constructed in two phases. Numbers 1 and 2 have red brick fronts, while the others feature yellow brick. They have high-pitched tiled roofs, with one end hipped. The windows are a mix of 18th and 19th century casement types. Five plain, boarded doors are sheltered by bracketed hoods.
