Description

Clay Hill Cottages is a row of cottages dating from the 18th century, located on Clay Hill Road in Lamberhurst. The cottages are constructed with a timber frame and feature weatherboarding, with part of the first floor rendered. The ground floor is partly weatherboarded and partly made of red and painted brick, resting on a sandstone base. The buildings are two storeys high with a garret and sit on a plinth, topped with a half-hipped roof that slopes to the right. There are stacks located at the left end, centre left, and at the rear.

The windows include three-light metal casements and a mix of three-light and two-light wooden casements on each floor, with an additional wooden casement located to the centre left on the ground floor. The doors are boarded, with one to the left featuring a flat hood, another in a gabled porch at the centre, and a third to the right.
