Salmon Cottages

A pair of attached cottages, dated 1849, located on the north side of Landrake Road, near St Erney. The cottages are built of slatestone rubble with stone dressings. They have a slurried slate roof with crested ridge tiles and gable ends, and a central axial stack.

The cottages follow a 2-room plan for each house, with the entrance to No. 1 on the left and to No. 2 on the right. Each house has a front and rear room, with an entrance leading to a passage and stair hall. Each front room is heated by a back-to-back fireplace from the axial stack.

The cottages are two storeys high with a two-window front. The first floor has two 20-pane sashes with stone segmental heads. The ground floor has a half-glazed door to the left, a blocked door, and a 20-pane sash. To the right is a 20-pane sash and a 20th-century door, all with stone segmental heads. A central datestone on the first floor displays a raised carved star, the date 1849, and a raised carved salmon. The interior was not inspected.
