34 and 36, High Street

34 and 36 High Street are a pair of attached cottages located in Langton Matravers. The cottages date from the 17th century, with No. 36 being a mid-19th century addition. They are constructed from coursed Purbeck stone rubble and feature a stone tile roof with red clay ridge tiles and gable ends. The buildings have stone axial and gable-end stacks topped with red and yellow clay pots.

No. 34 is a small house with a two-room plan. The right (east) end room has a large fireplace, while the left room is smaller and was probably originally unheated. No. 36 was added to the left (west) end as a separate cottage, consisting of one room at the front and a wing at the back. There are single-storey outshuts built behind No. 34.

The exterior of the cottages is two storeys with an attic. The north front has a 1:2 window arrangement. No. 34, on the right, features two 4-pane sash windows on the ground floor with a glazed door between them, which is sheltered by a 20th-century wooden porch. Above, there are two raking dormers with small sashes. No. 36, on the left, has a large sash window on each floor, with the first-floor window breaking the eaves, and a glazed door on the right within a large conservatory porch. At the rear, there are single-storey outshuts on the left and a gable-ended wing on the right.

Inside No. 34, the right-hand room has a chamfered cross-beam with bar-stops and a large stone fireplace featuring a chamfered timber lintel with hollow-step-stops. There is a partition with a moulded plank door and a chamfered beam above.
