Description

A pair of cottages dating from the late 18th century. They are timber framed with a rendered plinth, weatherboard cladding, and a pantiled roof with restored 20th-century guttering. A central rendered stack rises from the roof ridge. The cottages are two storeys high, featuring two casement windows on the first floor and a projecting square bay on the ground floor to the right. Boarded doors are positioned at each end; the door to No. 7 is to the right, sheltered by a flat hood supported on brackets, and the door to No. 8 is to the left, beneath a flat hood with a trellis porch. A catslide extension extends from the left end of the building.
