Description

Green Cottages, located in Glasbury, Powys, consist of two cottages, numbers 3 and 4, which are a reflected pair. They feature a continuation of the stone and slate roof that extends beyond a party wall. Each cottage has one bay and includes a boarded door set in an open timber porch. The windows are paired paned with arched heads, and the central glazing bar is shaped like a 'Y'. The ground floor window has a wedge lintel. Number 4 extends beyond the center 4-flue stack and has an elevation similar to number 3, although it unfortunately includes a glazed porch over the door.
