Description
Lora Cottages is a terrace of five cottages built in 1844, as indicated by the datestone. The cottages are constructed from coursed rubble sandstone and feature a pantile roof with brick stacks. They are two stories high and have a six-window front. The cottages have 20th-century part-glazed doors and 16-pane sash windows with stone sills throughout. All openings are topped with wedge lintels. The datestone above the central door is inscribed with "LORA COTTAGES 1844." The cottages also have ridge stacks.
