East end has attic dormers recessed into the slope of the roof. Elevation to street has two bays: sashes with marginal glazing bars on first floor. shallow canted bay with glazing bars on ground floor, and door with four moulded panels.

Each cottage has a brick floored living room with a variety of C19 chimney pieces (some marble) and cast iron ranges, a pantry lit by an unglazed but shuttered one-light window, and a newel stair leading to two first floor rooms. Perfect example of planned mid C19 workers' houses.
