Description
No. 3 The Terrace is part of a row of seven cottages built in the 19th century. The cottages are constructed from roughcast stone rubble and feature red brick stacks positioned along the ridge, most with four chimney pots. They have shallow pitched roofs covered with Welsh slate and terracotta ridge tiles, along with overhanging boarded eaves. Each cottage is two storeys tall, with the central cottages (Nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) being double fronted and featuring a two-window range with off-centre doorways. Nos. 1 and 9 The Terrace are larger and separately listed, while Nos. 2 and 8 are of intermediate size, with three and four-window ranges respectively. The original windows were six-pane sashes set in reveals with narrow sills, and the doors had moulded stucco surrounds with keystones and narrow overlights. At the rear, the roof has a flatter pitch, and the small-pane windows have mostly been replaced.
A garden wall extends around the side of No. 2's garden and in front of the terrace, connecting to the garden wall of No. 9. This wall is made of rubble and features end sections with tall coping stones, many of which have weathered into unique shapes. Other sections retain the original yellow terracotta saddle-back coping. The gate piers are short, with some having tooled quoins and others with flat or rock-faced capstones, and they support attached iron gates with double uprights below the centre rail. In front of the cottages is a pavement bordered by a water channel, crossed by metal slab bridges.
The cottages retain horned sashes, with larger windows on the ground floor and a replaced door. The interiors are reported to be all different, with many having flying freeholds.
