Description
Forest Gardens is a row of cottages located in Parkham, dating from the late 18th century, with an earlier 18th-century dwelling on the left. The cottages are finished with colourwash over coursed slatestone rubble and feature a gabled roof covered with 20th-century tiles. On the left end, there is an external stack made of rendered stone, finished in late 19th-century brick, which includes a bread-oven projection. The mid-19th-century brick ridge and right end stack complete the roof structure.
The row has a six-unit plan, with each house being two stories tall and having a two-window range, along with a central doorway. There are gabled porches from the 19th century leading to four-panelled doors, two of which are glazed. The windows are late 19th-century casements with timber lintels above. Inside, No. 6 on the left features an open fireplace, while No. 4 has a stop-chamfered beam. The roof was thatched as of 1958.
