1 AND 2

Nos 1 and 2 are a pair of cottages that were originally one house, dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century, with later alterations. The cottages feature rendered columns and a steeply pitched asbestos slate roof, with one end gabled and the other half-hipped. The roof of No 1, on the left, is slightly lower than that of No 2. There are rendered end stacks, and the layout is likely a three-room plan with a through passage and stacks at either end. The position of the hall stack is uncertain but is probably an axial stack backing onto the passage and now truncated below the roof. There are newel stairs at the rear of the higher end. The cottages are one storey with an attic and have a three-window range. No 2 has two 20th-century two-light casements and two 20th-century racking roof dormers at eaves level. No 1 has a lean-to extension at the front with a catslide roof and a 20th-century porch for No 2 in the angle.

Inside, No 2 features a chamfered half beam against the higher end wall with a bar stop, along with other chamfered ceiling beams, one of which is over a possible portion of a screen to the inner room. There is a fireplace in the higher end wall with a plain timber lintel and newel stairs in the rear wall at the higher end. The roof of No 1 at the lower end has three trusses, including one complete truss with a morticed apex and a morticed far collar that is missing, along with three tiers of mortice holes for threaded purlins that are also missing. One blade of a similar truss is intact, while the other blade has been replaced later. There is another truss with a lap-jointed side pegged collar. The roof of No 2 at the higher end has a similar structure but is much altered, with some principals having mortices for threaded purlins.
