Description

Psalm Cottage is a pair of cottages dating from the early 19th century. They are constructed of painted brick with a plain tiled roof, and feature flint on the rear elevations. The cottages stand two storeys tall and have a brick dentil eaves cornice beneath a hipped roof, which has a stack located at the rear. The front facade has a regular arrangement of four glazing bar sash windows on each floor, with boarded doors positioned to the left and right. These cottages are included for their group value.
