No.8 The Terrace and attached garden wall with gate piers

No. 8 The Terrace is part of a row of seven cottages built in the 19th century. The cottages are constructed from roughcast stone rubble, featuring 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 high, with the central cottages (Nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7) being double fronted and having a two-window range with off-centre doorways. Nos. 1 and 9 The Terrace are separately listed and are significantly larger, although No. 9 is attached. 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 featured moulded stucco surrounds with keystones and narrow overlights. The rear of the cottages has a flatter roof pitch and small-pane windows, most of which have been replaced.

The garden wall extends around the side of No. 2's garden and in front of the terrace, connecting with the garden wall of No. 9. This wall is made of rubble, with end sections featuring added tall coping stones that have weathered into unique shapes. Other sections retain the original yellow terracotta saddle-back coping. The gate piers are short, some with tooled quoins and others topped with flat or rock-faced capstones, featuring attached iron gates with double uprights below the centre rail. In front of the cottages, there is a pavement bordered by a water channel, crossed by metal slab bridges.

No. 8 has unpainted render and a four-window range of replaced small-pane windows, with a doorway featuring a replaced door located at the centre left. The front wall displays exotically-shaped coping stones set atop the original coping. The interiors of the cottages are reported to be all different, with many having flying freeholds.
