Description

Woodstock Cottages is a pair of cottages from the early 18th century, located on Box Mill Lane. They are constructed from rubble stone and feature stone tiled roofs. The original range has coped gables and end wall stacks, while No 1 has a coped gable and an east end stack, along with a half-hipped west gable due to an extension. The cottages are two storeys high. The original range, consisting of Nos 2 and 3, has a four-window arrangement with recessed cyma-moulded mullion windows, including four 2-light windows on the first floor and a drip course above the ground floor windows, which include a 2-light window, a door, a 3-light window, a 2-light window, another door, and a 4-light window. The doors are made of planks and set in chamfered flush surrounds. There is a small stone gable at the eaves, positioned off-centre, which is also repeated at the rear. No 1, on the left end, is built of squared rubble and features one window range with flush unmoulded 2-light mullion windows and a plank door to the right, likely from the 19th century. The extension to No 3 at the right end includes a ground floor glazed lean-to and an ashlar blank upper wall.
