Description

St Amands Cottages are two houses, likely originally three cottages, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. They are constructed from coursed squared marlstone with wooden lintels and feature a concrete plain-tile roof with brick stacks. The building is a single range divided into three sections and stands two storeys high with an attic. The six-window front has entrances to the right of the second and fourth bays, along with a passage entrance in the fourth bay. The ground floor retains some old three-light casements, while the first floor has 20th-century casements. The 20th-century roof, which steps down to the right of the second bay, includes one dormer and four stacks. The sixth bay has a small cellar window. The interiors have not been inspected, and the two middle bays are likely the most recent addition.
