The adjoining cottage was also originally two dwellings, with two doors in the centre – the left one now replaced by a window – flanked by single windows. The building is part of a group of buildings of group value with items 3 and 4 on the register. The listing relates specifically to the group interest of the cottage, applying to both the interior and exterior.
