Description

Avenue Terrace is a row of seven estate cottages located on Churston Road in Brixham, dating from the mid-19th century. The cottages feature solid roughcast walls and slated roofs, with old red-brick chimneys on the ridge above the party and end walls, where the upper courses project to form caps. The chimney on the left end wall of No. 1 has been rebuilt in replica. Each cottage is likely one room wide and two rooms deep, with a catslide rear lean-to. There is a detached row of storage sheds behind the cottages.

The buildings are two storeys high, with each cottage having one window per storey, positioned to the left, and a doorway to the right. The doorways are topped with pent-roofed hoods supported by shaped wooden brackets. Nos. 5 and 6 retain their original plank doors, with No. 5 featuring a diamond-shaped window cut into it. Most windows have two-light mid to late 20th-century wooden casements, while No. 1 has an older three-light wooden casement in the upper storey, with eight panes per light. Avenue Terrace is depicted on the Churston Ferrers tithe map from 1839.
