Description

These late 18th and early 19th century farm cottages are built of rubble with margins, and have a slated roof. A segmental coachhouse arch is also present. The listing recognizes their group value, meaning their significance lies in how they relate to other buildings, specifically at Old House, Scotscraig. The listing applies to both the interior and exterior of the cottages.
