Description

This is a row of ten workers' cottages located at Corris Uchaf. They were constructed using rubble stonework, which is whitewashed on the front, and have slate roofs. The cottages are arranged in a straight line, with each featuring a single two-storey bay. Each cottage has a door framed with narrow timber battens, and 16-pane sash windows on both the ground and first floors. Stone chimney stacks are set into the party walls between the cottages. Alterations have been made to the rear of the buildings.
