Pair of cottages, originally probably one house. C17, extended probably in late C18/early C19. Rendered cob walls. Gable ended roof, principally thatched, slated over left-hand end. 2 gable end stacks have brick shafts. Original plan unclear, likely to have been 2 room with principal heated room to the right and service room to the left. The building was extended by one heated room probably when it was divided into 2 houses. 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4 window front, 2 windows to each cottage. Brattonia cottage has C19 small-paned 2-light casements on the 1st floor and mid C20 2-light metal-framed casements to the ground floor. C20 panelled and part-glazed door to right of centre. Forge Cottage to the right has C19 3-light small paned casements with H-L hinges on the 1st floor in small openings. C20 3-light casement with glazing bars below to the right. To the left on the ground floor is a C20 wooden porch with glazed door. Projecting from the centre of the building is a single storey mid C19 outbuilding. Interior inaccessible at time of survey but is likely to contain early features such as open fireplaces and possibly original roof timbers.
