69, 70 AND 71, FORE STREET

Nos. 69, 70, and 71 on Fore Street are a row of three houses, likely built in the early to mid-19th century, although they may be remodelled versions of older cottages. The houses have rendered stone rubble walls and gable-ended slate roofs. There is a rendered stack at the left gable end, which appears to be a brick shaft on a rubble base, along with a brick rear lateral stack for the central cottage and a rendered axial stack between the central and right-hand house.

The buildings are two storeys high. No. 69, on the left, features a single window front with a later 19th-century six-pane sash window on the first floor, a late 20th-century PVC window below with a slate drip course above, and a later 19th-century gabled porch with a decorative barge-board to the right, which has a 19th-century glazed and panelled door behind it. No. 70 in the centre has two semicircular 19th-century bay windows on the ground floor, a 19th-century small-paned casement window above to the right, and a later 20th-century one- and two-light casement window to the left, with a central 20th-century part-glazed door. No. 71, on the right, has a regular two-window front with early 19th-century 16-pane sashes and a small 20th-century light at the centre on the first floor, with a 19th-century four-panel door below. The interiors have not been inspected.
