Description
Cranley Cottages and Cranley Lodge are a pair of buildings designed in 1884 by George and Peto, showcasing a half-timbered style. The ground floor is constructed of red brick, while the upper section to the right features tile hanging, with some tiles arranged in patterned bands. The central and left sections have a timber frame, with decorative circular and semi-circular framing on the left and close studding in the center. The roofs are plain tiled, and the structure has two central gables, with the left gable projecting further forward. To the left, there is a flat-headed carriage entrance, and the cottages are located to the right.
The buildings are two stories tall, featuring corbelled end stacks on the left and left of center, additional stacks between the gables, a large ridge stack to the right of center, and an end ridge stack on the right. There is one three-light dormer on the left, with the center light arched and topped with a steep pediment or gable. Above the arched through-way, there are four pairs of braces supported by stone corbels. A three-light casement window is located on the ground floor to the left. The gables at the center are double jettied at the first floor and at the base of the gable.
An angle bay oriel window supported by braces is found on the first floor of the left gable, which has decorative frames above it. There is a square bay window in the center of the ground floor, similar to the one on the right gable. A first-floor window features an arched center light, known as the "swans house type." To the right, there are two first-floor casements, with three ground floor windows beneath cambered heads. A part-glazed door to the right (No. 4) is sheltered by a large pentice hood on brackets. Another door to the right of the gables (No. 3) is also under a similar hood supported on one bracket. Additional doors are located on either side of the carriageway, each under flat-roofed porches made of brick walls and turned, tapering pillars to the left, with a jettied first floor to the right supported by two tapering pillars.
