Description

3 Old Ground Cottages is a single-story range of later 19th century estate cottages, positioned symmetrically across a six-bay frontage. The cottages have entrances in bays two and five. The construction is primarily grey rubble with tooled red sandstone dressings, and the reveals are painted. The rear elevation is harled. Doorways are sheltered by gabled canopies supported by wooden columns. Windows are 4-pane sashes. A continuous outshot extends to the rear, slightly shorter than the rear elevation, with canopied entrances serving cottages one and four at either end. The building features coped ridge and end stacks, and it has slate roofs. The cottages have an unusual interior plan.
