Description
This is a terrace of seven houses and the Manor Arms public house, built around 1760 for Gilpin Sawrey. The buildings are constructed of roughcast stone and topped with a slate roof. They rise to three storeys, most with basements, and feature nine bays, with the Manor Arms occupying two of those bays. The top cornice adds detail to the facade.
The windows are sashed with single glazing bars, and the entrances are fitted with six-panel doors. The second house, known as West View, has all glazing bars on the ground floor window and casements above, sharing a gabled glazed 20th-century porch with the first house, Knott View. A lantern on a bracket is positioned at the angle of the terrace. The third house has an entrance with an overlight, a basement entrance, and windows with vertical glazing bars. The fourth house, Oak Lea, features a half-glazed door and a basement entrance. The fifth house includes a basement window and vertical glazing bars on the second-floor window. The sixth house, Fern Lea, has a basement window with small-paned fixed glazing, while the seventh house has a sashed basement window and 19th-century enriched balusters, with steps leading to the entrances of both houses.
The public house has 19th-century canted bay windows flanking an elliptical-headed entrance that includes a fanlight and a lantern. The buildings have gable-end stacks and cross-axial stacks, and the rear retains sashes and small-paned stair windows. This terrace was built as part of a planned town square, which is an unusual feature in a Cumbrian village.
