Description

This is a row of three cottages, originally four, dating from the 18th century and altered in the 20th century. The cottages are built of rendered and plastered stone rubble, with possible cob elements. The central and right-hand cottages have thatched roofs with gables, while the left-hand cottage has an asbestos slate roof, hipped at one end. The left-hand cottage has a brick stack on a rubble base, and there is a brick axial stack and another at the right-hand end of the row.

The left-hand and central cottages each have a two-room plan, and the right-hand cottage (Post Cottage) was formerly two cottages and now has three rooms. The front of the row is asymmetrical, with a fenestration pattern of two windows, two windows, and three windows. The left-hand and central cottages feature early to mid-20th century two-light casement windows, with a late 19th or early 20th century four-pane sash window on the ground floor of the central cottage. Post Cottage has an early 19th century horizontal sliding sash window on the first floor, alongside a 19th century two-light casement window to its right and below. A former lean-to porch on the left-hand side of the ground floor has been replaced with a bay window. Further right are two early 20th century four-pane sash windows. A gabled brick porch on the right side of the centre has a four-panel door behind it. The other two cottages incorporate similar circa early 20th century porches, one with a 20th-century four-panel door and the other with a 20th-century plank door. The interior was inaccessible at the time of survey.
