Description

This is a circa 18th/19th century terrace of two cottages, Virginia Cottage No 1 and Wayside. The cottages are built of stone rubble and have slate roofs with gabled ends. They have a six-window front, with two and three-light casement windows featuring glazing bars. Virginia Cottage No 1 has a door with fielded and ogee-shaped flank panels, while the other cottages have glazed doors. Brick chimney stacks rise from the ridge and ends of the roof.
