Description

These are a pair of houses, now cottages, dating back to the 17th century, although they were re-clad in the 18th century. They are timber-framed and largely brick-faced, with the right return front finished in tile hanging. The roof is covered in plain tiles and has a stack positioned centrally to the left. The first floor has four wooden casement windows. On the ground floor are three casement windows, a boarded-up door to the left, and a single half-glazed door to the right, all set within segment-headed openings.
