Description
Church Town Cottage, Churchgate Cottage, and Lanherne Cottage are three houses, likely originally built as poorhouses, dating from the early 19th century with some 20th-century alterations. They are constructed of painted stone rubble and cob, topped with a bitumenised slate roof featuring ridge tiles and gable ends. The gable end stacks have wide brick shafts.
The layout consists of a pair of back-to-back houses on the right, with Church Town Cottage at the front and Churchgate Cottage at the rear, each having a one-room plan heated from the gable end stack on the right. Lanherne Cottage on the left has a two-room plan, with one room at the front and one at the rear, heated from the gable end stack on the left. This may have originally been a pair of back-to-back houses as well.
The exterior is two storeys high with a nearly symmetrical three-window front. Church Town Cottage features a panelled and glazed door, and early 19th-century 16-pane sashes at both the ground and first floors on the right. There is a shared window at the first floor center, with a plate-glass sash on the left and an 8-pane sash on the right. A small 20th-century addition is located at the ground floor to the right. Lanherne Cottage has later 19th-century 4-pane sashes at both the ground and first floors, along with a half-glazed door to the right. On the right end, there is a 4-pane sash at the ground floor. At the rear, Churchgate Cottage on the left has a 4-pane sash at the ground floor and a 6-pane sash at the first floor, with a half-glazed door to the right. Lanherne Cottage on the right has 4-pane sashes at both the ground and first floors on the right and a door to the left, with a central shared window on the first floor. The interior has not been inspected.
