Description

Erth Barton Cottages, built in the 18th century and extended in the 19th century, are a pair of two-storey cottages made of rubble with a slate roof and gable end chimneys. Originally, there were three windows, with the outer ones being paired and an additional bay on the right side. The windows are glazing bar sash windows. There are two doorways; the left-hand one features a six-panel door that is raised and fielded. The cottages have a through-passage plan, and the rear door has an old-fashioned shouldered lintel.
