Description
Nos 3 and 4 are a pair of cottages built in the mid 19th century. They are constructed from rubble with ashlar dressings and feature a slate, gable-ended roof with brick stacks located centrally and at the rear eaves. The cottages are symmetrical, standing two storeys high with four bays. The outer bays each have doors topped with 4-centred heads and returned labels. The inner ground floor bays contain 2-light casements, also with returned labels, while the upper floor features two 2-light casements without labels.
