End brick stacks, that to left earliest. Rear: wallplate visible below dentilled eaves. Interior not inspected at resurvey but reported to contain remains of timber-framed cross wall, with tie beam and wallplate. Nos 1 and 2 Village Terrace: 6-panel door to left of centre; small-paned window in blocked doorway far left; C20 frames throughout. Dentilled eaves cornice; large brick ridge stack to right of centre. Rear wall of stone rubble. Interior: the door opens onto the side of back-to-back fireplaces with timber lintels.

The former smithy building attached to left of Corner Cottage is in common ownership with Nos 1 and 2 Village Terrace and is not of special interest. B Hutton, "The Houses of Scriven Green", 1979.
