17 and 18 The Village, Angle

One of a group of cottages in uniform style amongst those improved c.1905 by the squire of Angle, Col. R W B Mirehouse, and part of a systematic village improvement including the Globe Hotel. A single storey cottage with end-chimney, built in local rubble masonry, enlarged in brickwork to two storeys, extended to the rear, and given a flat roof. Walls rendered externally to conceal the change in material. End chimneys. Decorative cornice at front similar to that on The Globe. Two-pane sash windows, three window range. [A wing of brickwork at either end of the front elevation indicates that it was intended to improve nos. 11 and 14 similarly, but these remain single storey cottages.]
