Description
This is a pair of cottages, built in the early to mid-19th century. The front is constructed of red and grey brick in a chequered pattern, with grey brick headers. The roof is tiled, with ridge stacks positioned centrally and at the left end, and there are two dormers with flat roofs. The cottages have two storeys and an attic, with a two-window front. The windows are sash windows set within brick surrounds. There is a door to the right of each ground-floor window; the left door is panelled, and the right door is panelled with an inset fanlight. The cottages are included on the list because of their group value.
