7, 8, 9, HIGH STREET

This is a terrace of three cottages located on the north side of High Street, Stanton. The cottages were built in the late 18th century, with additions and alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The construction of the cottages varies; No. 7 is built with roughly squared, coursed stone, No. 8 with better squared stone, and No. 9 with nearly ashlar stone. All have a roof of stone slate.

The front elevation has six windows and is two storeys high, with a single room depth. The left-hand section of the terrace features two 3-light mullioned windows. A boarded door leads up three stone steps, with a narrow, rectangular fanlight above. This is followed by a 2-light casement window, a mullioned window with a deep stone lintel, and a half-glazed door leading up two stone steps with a stone lintel. To the right is a 2-light mullioned window, a late 20th-century door with a stone lintel, and a shallow 2-light mullioned window. The first floor has two 3-light wooden casement windows with iron opening lights, a 3-light mullioned window with wooden frames, a 2-light casement window, and two 2-light mullioned windows with wooden casements. A parapet gable is present at the left end, with a cross-gablet apex, and an ashlar chimney. There's a slight step in the roofline at the right-hand first door, and three ashlar chimneys, one on the parapet gable at the right end. A three-centred archway is set back on the right, above a 2-light mullioned window and a string course. There is a parapet gable on the left, and a further ashlar chimney.
