Description

Moss Side consists of two cottages, likely built in the early 18th century. The cottages are roughcast over stone rubble and feature a flag roof, rising to two storeys. Each cottage has two windows on each floor, which have been modernised, but the old ceiling beams are still visible inside. The exterior also includes two gabled porches.
