Description
Two attached cottages, likely dating from the late 18th century, are constructed of rubble-stone walls and feature a thatched roof with hipped ends. Brick stacks are present at the left-hand gable and along the ridge towards the right-hand side. The cottages are one-and-a-half storeys high, with four windows containing 3-light wooden casements with horizontal glazing-bars. Wooden sills and stone arch-voussoirs are also present. The front doors, located on the left and right sides, are plank doors with a single glass light, and appear to be 20th-century replacements.
