Description

This is a mid-19th century row of single-storey cottages situated on a sloping site at Braeside Terrace, Peat Inn. The cottages are an unusually long group, with roofs that slope down to ground level. They are constructed of whin rubble with harled brick dressings around the doors and windows, and large, stugged dressings, some of which have painted margins. The cottages have eight double-leaf boarded doors and fourteen 12-pane sash and case windows, some of which are boarded up. The roof is pantiled, with nine chimney stacks, some of which are ashlar and others harled. Internally, each cottage was originally designed with two or three rooms. There have been no later additions to the cottages. The row is shown on the 1855 Ordnance Survey map as Collier Row.
