Old Dock Cottages

Old Dock Cottages is a terrace of five houses built in 1831 for the Bristol Docks Company. The cottages are constructed from coursed Pennant rubble and render, featuring party wall stacks and a slate roof. Each house has a single-depth plan and is a single storey with a three-window range. The symmetrical design includes a rubble plinth at the ground-floor cill, central doorways with pitched canopies supported by plain brackets, and segmental-arched doorways with splayed reveals leading to plain board doors. On either side of the doorways are segmental-arched ground-floor windows with splayed reveals, half dormers with casement windows, and a small central rectangular window with three panes. The single-storey rear has a full-width rubble block topped with a raking double Roman tile roof. The interior has not been inspected. This terrace is part of a significant surviving group of workers' housing.
