Description

Sprivers Cottages is a pair of cottages dated 1779. They feature a red brick ground floor and a tile-hung first floor, topped with a plain tiled roof. The cottages are arranged in two parallel ranges, standing two storeys high with a garret on a plinth that is obscured by the sloping ground to the right. There is a string course at the first floor level, and the roof has stacks at both the end right and end left. Each floor has two three-light and two central two-light wooden windows, along with boarded doors on the left and right, both of which have moulded flat hoods. The rear range displays identical detailing.
