Description

No 3, Red Row is a group of six single-storey farm cottages built in 1892, arranged in two terraces. The cottages are constructed from tooled coursed pink sandstone, featuring dressed red sandstone ashlar long and short quoins and pink sandstone sills.

The south elevation, which is the principal front, consists of six cottages, each with a central doorway framed by red ashlar margins. The doors are timber panelled with a small glazed fanlight above. Each cottage has windows with chamfered red sandstone margins and projecting sills on either side of the door.

The west and east elevations have a blind wall with a small rectangular window at the rear. On the west gable of the west terrace, there is a rectangular red post-box inset. The eaves overhang with ornamental bargeboards at the gable apex, and there is a gablehead stack.

The north elevation, or rear, mirrors the front in plan, although some cottages have single-storey extensions added in the late 20th century.

The cottages feature 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows at the front and 8-pane sash and case windows on the sides. The roof is gabled and pitched, covered with grey slate and stone ridging tiles, and has exposed rafters and purlins supporting a large triangular timber barge board with curved bracket infill and a lower finial. The guttering is green painted with replacement plastic down-pipes. There are square sandstone stacks on the gables of the west range, featuring projecting moulded neck copes and single octagonal cans, and triple cans on two central rectangular stacks. The east range has matching rectangular stacks with paired octagonal cans and triple cans on two central stacks, although the middle can is missing on the centre right stack. Zinc flashing is present at the bases of all stacks.

The interior was not seen during the last inspection in 2000.
