Description

Bridge Place consists of two attached cottages, which were formerly three, dating from the late 18th century. The cottages have rubble stone walls and a clay-tile roof, featuring stone gable copings. There are brick stacks on the ridge and on the right-hand gable. The buildings are two storeys high and have four windows, which are two-light casements with glazing bars, wood cills, and lintels, with a three-light window on the right at ground level. There is an open through-passage to the left that adjoins number 7. The front doors are located on the west elevation; they are plank doors with 20th-century glazing, framed by 19th-century wood frames and lintels. Number 7, which is attached to the south, is not listed.
