Description

Two of the cottages have three bays, central doors, and end stacks, while the cottage to the east is set at an angle and has two bays. The roofs are covered with graded slates, except for the eastern cottage, which has uniform slates. All the cottages are constructed from painted rubble with contrasting margins. They feature sash windows, with lying panes in the inner cottage.
