Description

Nos. 1-12 Canal Cottages are a row of cottages built from overpainted rubble stone with slate roofs and brick ridge stacks. Numbers 10 and 11 form a taller section of the row.

At the rear, a ramped approach to Clafton Bridge runs close to the cottages at first floor level. The cottages feature irregular window openings set under the eaves, all fitted with modern glazing. The canal side elevations display varied openings; the ground floor doors and windows primarily have cambered heads, which were added during the latter half of the 19th century when the cottages were converted for domestic use. First floor windows are also set under the eaves. Most have modern glazing, except for numbers 10 and 11, which retain small-paned iron casements. Numbers 4, 5, and 9 have modern lean-to porches, and there is an additional modern porch at Nos. 6 and 7. Number 3 features large central double doors under a brick cambered head.

Numbers 5-9 still have the massive transverse beams that once supported the malting floor, and perforated encaustic tiles can be seen reused in the gardens for edging and paving.
