Description
A pair of early 18th-century cottages stand in a row on Martins Road, near Keevil. The cottages are built of painted English bond brick, with a thatched roof and a brick stack on the left-hand side. They are two storeys high and have three windows each. Number 50 has a 20th-century door and a three-light casement window to the left. Number 51 has two three-light casement windows. A decorative dentil brick plat band runs around the building, and the first floor has three three-light casement windows. Lean-to rear extensions have been added. The building possesses group value from its contribution to the streetscape.
