Description

Two attached cottages stand at right angles, built in the late 18th century and subsequently altered. The cottages have roughcast rubble-stone walls, painted, and a thatched roof with gable ends. Brick stacks are visible at the gable ends and at the centre of the ridge. Number 9 faces the roadside and is 1½ storeys high with 5 windows. The ground floor features a 2-light casement at the left end, and small sash windows with glazing bars at the right end; these windows have unusual wood dentil cornices with bracketed wooden hoods. There are two 20th-century dormers (with casements) at the left end, a square casement with glazing bars, and two sashes above to the right. The front door on the left is plank and glass, also from the 20th century; the door on the right is plank with the top half glazed and stable-type. Number 8 is a smaller cottage located at the rear, constructed from the same materials and also 1½ storeys high. It has 20th-century metal casements and a plank-and-muntin front door in the angle between the two cottages, again dating to the 20th century.
