Description
This is a row of three cottages, likely built in the late 17th century, with some modifications and an extension. The cottages are constructed from coursed ham stone rubble and feature a thatched half-hipped roof with brick chimney stacks. They are single-storey with an attic and comprise six bays in total. Number 15 is probably an 18th-century extension that has been modified, while numbers 13 and 14 may have originally been one house.
Number 13, the southernmost cottage, has two bays. It features a boarded door in a plain opening in bay 1 and a three-light steel casement window in bay 2, both under timber lintels. Above the door, there is a three-light window in a swept dormer, and there is an outshut at the rear. Number 14 also has two bays, with a horizontal bar casement in bay 1, a three-light window below, and a two-light window in a swept dormer. The boarded door in bay 2 has a glazed panel in a plain opening, with timber lintels above both lower openings and a larger lintel above the door.
Number 15 is a two-bay cottage, single storey only, with three-light casements set in segmental-arched brick-lined openings. The door is located in an extension to the north, which also features a cast-iron pump with a handle on the corner. The interiors have not been seen, but it is reported that number 14 has timber-framed wattle and daub partitions, and the south gable of number 13 has timber framing above the first-floor ceiling level. The roof structure includes a halved-joint collar-beam truss, trenched purlins, and the feet of the principal rafters are tenoned into the wall plates.
