Description
This is a late 18th and 19th century range of buildings constructed from stone rubble, with a slate gabled roof. The roof has stone coping to the gable ends, featuring truncated finials and stone kneelers. A parallel range is located to the rear, at the west end. The windows are primarily 2-light casements with small panes; however, number 1 has windows without small panes, and number 3 has sash windows with no glazing bars. Segmental headed windows and doorways are visible on the ground floor. Numbers 1, 3, 5, and 6 each have a 6-panelled door with the two upper panels glazed.
