Description

This is a terrace of four cottages, now used as three separate dwellings, built in the early to mid-19th century. The cottages are constructed of brick, with sarsen stone gables on the rear elevation, and have a thatched roof. They are two storeys in height. Each cottage has two bays, with a centrally positioned boarded front door and one two-light window and one single-light window. All window and door openings feature segmental brick arches and flush blue brick detailing. Chimneys are situated on the party walls separating each pair of cottages. The roof is half-hipped. The front doors and windows remain unaltered.
