Description
Corton Glebe Cottage, Olde Cheese House, and No 29 are a row of four cottages, now three, dating from the early to mid 19th century. They are constructed of coursed rubble stone and feature a hipped roof covered with fishscale tiles and brick stacks. The building is two storeys high with eight windows.
Corton Glebe Cottage, located on the left, has a four-panelled door with an ogee-shaped hood, a single-light casement, and three two-light casements to the left, with two more in blocked doorways. The Olde Cheese House in the center has a gabled porch and a door with arch-headed ribbed panels to the right, along with two pairs of small 12-pane sash windows with segmental heads to the left, one of which is in a blocked doorway. No 29, to the right, which likely dates from the later 19th century, features a 20th-century door with a gabled canopy, a segmental-headed single-light casement to the right, and a two-light casement to the left.
On the first floor, the two left-hand cottages have three two-light segmental-headed casements and two pairs of small sashes, while No 29 has two two-light segmental-headed casements. There is a single-storey 20th-century addition attached to the right of No 29. The rear of the cottages has lean-to extensions and 20th-century casements. This group of 19th-century cottages retains its original front with little alteration.
