Description

Helvetia, Crofters, The Match Box, Pendennis, No 4, Penlee, Monks Newell, Newell Cottage, and Seven Cottages at West End are a group of cottages located on the north side of Greenhill, dating from around 1625. The buildings feature two-storey coursed rubble fronts of various dates, with roofs made of slate, patent pantiles, and old plaintiles.

Crofters and Helvetia are a pair with 19th-century fronts, each having one window bay and an inner doorway. They have tile gabled roofs with stone slate verges and segmental openings for both doors and windows, which have ledged doors. The Match Box and Pendennis have later 19th-century fronts, also two storeys with one window bay and an inner doorway each. These have red brick returns, brick quoins, and dressings, with segmental openings for doors and windows featuring stone keystones. The sash windows have horizontal glazing bars that are missing, and there are four-flush-panelled doors.

No 4 is likely from the 17th century and has a much lower frontage with a steep pantile roof. It features a three-light casement with lead glazing above and a four-light modern wood casement below, along with a ledged door in a frame to the left. Penlee, which may date to the 18th century or earlier, has a lower frontage than No 4 and a plaintile roof. It is two storeys with one window bay, featuring casement windows with small panes—three-light above and two-light below—and a ledged door in a frame to the right.

Monks Newell and Newell Cottage likely date from the 17th to early 18th century and are two storeys with two window bays. They have a slate gabled roof with stone slates towards the verge and a stone plinth. The upper level has two three-light wood casements, while the lower level has paired sash windows without glazing bars to the left and a sash window without glazing bars to the right. There is a passageway in the centre.

These listed buildings, from Newell Cottage to Belmont on the north side of Greenhill and from Delta to the premises occupied by Godden and Curtis on the south side, form a cohesive group.
