Description
A pair of semi-detached cottages, dating to around 1895. They were commissioned by Mary Watts as residences for managers at her nearby pottery. The cottages are believed to have been designed by the architect Clough Williams Ellis. The architectural style is Vernacular Revival. The ground floor is constructed of brick, while the upper portion is roughcast with close-studding in the centre. The roof is tiled, featuring clustered brick chimneystacks. The cottages are two storeys high with attics, and have five windows. They include projecting gables to the front and one to the rear. The attic windows are small casements with leaded glass. The first floor features three-light leaded casement windows in the centre and at the ends, and two two-light casements in the penultimate bays. The interior of number 6 retains original features, including the staircase, panelling, fireplaces, and floor tiles. The cottages group with numbers 1-4 Oak Cottages, which were likely designed by Sir Ernest George for pottery workers.
