Description
No. 5 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 of which have 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 ones (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 significantly larger, although No. 9 is attached; Nos. 2 and 8 are of intermediate size, featuring a three-window and four-window range respectively.
Originally, the windows were 6-pane sashes set in reveals with narrow sills, and the doors had moulded stucco surrounds that included a keystone 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, with end sections featuring tall coping stones that have weathered into unique shapes; other sections retain the original yellow terracotta saddle-back coping. The gate piers are short, with some featuring tooled quoins and others having flat or rock-faced capstones, along with attached iron gates that have 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.
The property has had small-pane windows and the door replaced. The interiors of the cottages are reported to be all different, with many having flying freeholds.
