Description
This is a pair of semi-detached cottages, originally built in the early 18th century. They have been altered to become a shop and a house. The cottages are constructed of painted English garden wall bond brick with stone quoins and a plinth, and have a half-hipped Welsh slate roof and a brick stack. The front facade is two stories high with four windows. A planked door is set in a moulded case on the left side, alongside a 2-light casement window that replaces a former recessed chamfered mullioned window. On the right side is a 20th-century shop front with a glazed door. A plat band runs along the first floor, above which are four 2-light recessed chamfered mullioned casement windows. The returns are rendered and without windows. The rear of the building includes a 20th-century extension and casement windows. The interior is not considered to be of particular historical interest.
