Description
This is a row of ten workers' cottages situated at Corris Uchaf. They were constructed using rubble stonework, which is whitewashed on the front elevation, and have slate roofs. The cottages stand in a straight line, with each being a single two-storey bay. Each cottage has a framed and boarded door and 16-pane sash windows on both the ground and first floors. Stone stacks are positioned on the party walls between the cottages. Alterations have been made to the rear of the properties. A part-glazed door has replaced the original.
