Description
A pair of dwellings dating from the mid-19th century. The cottages are constructed of roughcast cob with stone footings, and have gabled-end slate roofs. They have a single-depth plan with rear extensions. Notable features include a left-hand end stack and an axial stack to the right of centre, both with brick shafts. The front facade has an asymmetrical four-window arrangement, featuring 12-pane hornless sash windows with moulded surrounds, with the exception of one first-floor sash. All but one of these windows appear to be original. The ground-floor window on the left has an external cornice and shutters, and the doorway has a moulded architrave and cornice, topped with a 20th-century open ironwork porch.
