Crescent Cottage Newton Cottage

Crescent Cottage and Newton Cottage are a pair of houses dating from the late 18th century, located on Church Street in Tewkesbury. They feature Flemish brickwork, a tiled roof, and brick stacks. The buildings rise three storeys with a basement and have a one-over-one window arrangement. The first and second floors have six-paned sash windows, which may have originally been 16-paned, set in wide splayed v-joint voussoirs with a central key to the cornice. The ground floor has a 16-pane window and a grille to the basement on the right. A central wide six-panel fielded door is framed by a shouldered moulded architrave beneath a fluted frieze with swept ends and a closed pediment. A full-width fascia runs across the ground floor at lintel height. Large stacks are present at the gable ends of the transverse roof, which is topped with a coped parapet. There is a gabled wing at the back left that rises two storeys. The interior has not been inspected, but the low floor-to-floor heights suggest the possibility of earlier fabric within.
