Description
Mill Cottages, consisting of Nos 1 and 2, and Bridge Cottage, is an 18th-century L-shaped building located on the south-west side of Farningham High Street. It is two storeys tall with attics, featuring two windows and two gabled dormers on the north-east side, and six windows along with three gabled dormers on the north-west side. The exterior is faced with weatherboarding, with the north-east front designed to mimic masonry through grooving. The roof is tiled. Bridge Cottage, which faces north-east, showcases elaborate glazing in its windows, some of which open as casements. It has two bays on the ground floor and a doorcase with a pediment-shaped hood above. Nos 1 and 2 Mill Cottages, facing north-west, retain their sash windows with intact glazing bars and have doorcases topped with flat hoods supported by brackets.
