Description
A pair of late 17th and early 18th century cottages, situated in Atherington. The cottages are constructed of rendered stone rubble and cob, and have a half-hipped thatched roof. Stone rubble stacks with brick shafts are visible at each end and along the central axis. The cottages are arranged around a central staircase plan, and present a nearly symmetrical facade with five windows. The window openings mostly contain 19th and 20th century glazing, including a three-light casement and a two-light casement on the left-hand cottage, and three two-light casements on the right-hand cottage. The left-hand cottage has a 20th-century door flanked by windows, whilst the right-hand cottage features a gabled porch with a plank door and sashes with margin glazing bars to each side. Outshuts are located at the rear.
