Description
Chestnut Cottages are two attached cottages dating from the mid-17th century. They feature coursed rubble-stone walls and a combination of an asbestos slate roof and a 20th-century Roman tile roof. There are stacks located at the left-hand party wall and the right-hand gable. The cottages are two storeys high and have four windows on the ground floor. Cottage No. 1 has two three-light stone mullion windows that are hollow-chamfered and fitted with casements. Cottage No. 2 features wooden casements with segmental brick heads, including two-light and three-light windows. On the upper floor, both cottages have two-light wooden casements with glazing bars and lowered cills.
The doors include a depressed-arch doorway with straight-chamfered jambs from the 17th century for both cottages. No. 1 has a 20th-century plank door, while No. 2 has a similar doorway with a 20th-century plank-and-muntin door that includes one glass light.
