Description

29-34 Kelston Mills is a row of six cottages for brassworkers, now comprising five cottages since Nos. 31 and 32 have been combined into one. They were likely built around the 1760s for William Champion's brassworks. The cottages are constructed from coursed rubble and feature a double Roman tiled roof with a brick ridge and chimney. The buildings are three storeys high, with each cottage having a single two-light casement window beneath a segmental arch. There are doorways with segmental arches for each cottage, most of which have 20th-century doors. Nos. 30, 32, 33, and 34 include 20th-century porches, while No. 31 has been blocked and is now a window. At the rear, there is a continuous single-storey lean-to. This row of three-storey houses is notable for its rural setting and is an early example of workers' housing.
