Rooks Hill Cottages

Rooks Hill Cottages, now comprising Nos 1, 2 and 3-4, are a group of houses dating back to the 17th century, with later 18th-century extensions and 20th-century additions to the ends and rear. The houses are timber-framed with thin timbers and red and brown brick infill. Brick extensions have a rendered plinth. The roofs are tiled and the overall plan is T-shaped, with extensions to the left of a gabled cross wing. Architectural features include a corbelled end stack to the right, a rear ridge stack to the right of centre, additional stacks on the gabled cross wing and at the end to the left. The cottages are two storeys high, with two casement windows on the first floor of the left-hand range. This range also has end bracing and three windows below, two of which are grouped under a common lintel. A gable bay is visible with a queen-strut roof truss. To the right is one first-floor casement window, one ground-floor window, a gabled porch containing a door, three first-floor windows, four ground-floor windows, and two ground-floor doors, each set within a gabled porch.
