Description
Mount Cottage, Luffield Cottage, and Brentry Cottage form a terrace of three cottages dating to circa 1820. The construction is of squared and coursed red sandstone and blue lias rubble, with an asbestos slate roof. The design includes overhanging eaves, a soffit board, and brick stacks located at the gable ends and between the second and third bays of the right-hand side. The plan follows a 2-cell and cross passage layout.
The cottages have two storeys and a 1:2:2:1 bay arrangement. They feature pointed arch, warty paned casements with divided tracery tops. An entrance is set in the penultimate bays and the centre. A studded plank door is present, and Luffield and Brentry Cottages have decorative hinges, which are probably not of contemporary date. The terrace represents an attractive range of estate workers’ cottages that has retained its original Gothick fenestration.
