32-33, Menmarsh Road

Nos. 32 and 33 on Menmarsh Road are a row of four cottages that have been converted into two dwellings. They date from the late 17th century to the early 18th century, with some features from the early to mid-18th century. The cottages are constructed from limestone rubble with timber lintels and have thatched and plain-tile roofs.

The left pair of cottages, which are the earlier ones, have a plank door and an adjacent two-light casement window, along with a small dormer. The right pair retains both plank doors and a two-light casement. The thatched roof of the earlier pair is half-hipped on the left side and features stone and brick gable stacks, while the lower-pitched tiled roof on the right has an additional gable stack.

At the rear, the main windows consist of rows of four casements on both the ground and first floors. The earlier pair includes a three-light casement on the ground floor and small dormers with heavy frames. There are also remains of a plinth with an ashlar offset, which is now rendered over. Inside, there are three steep stairs and a massive stack with a blocked fireplace and a bread oven in the earlier unit. It is likely that this was originally a two-unit cottage that was divided and extended to form the current row of four.
