Description

These are a pair of cottages with frontages dating from the Georgian period. The cottages are finished with roughcast render, painted at No. 14 and unpainted at No. 12. They have a slate roof with ridge and end stacks, two of which are roughcast and one of brick. The cottages are two storeys high.

No. 14 has a two-window arrangement on the first floor, featuring 12-pane sash windows set in reveals. The ground floor has a similar low-set window to the right and a shallow, multi-pane canted bay window to the left. A central doorway is sheltered by a hood supported by decorative cast-iron brackets, and has a 20th-century glazed door. There is a shallow plinth at the base.

No. 12 shares a similar frontage to No. 14, but retains a six-panel door with glazed upper lights. It also has an additional bay at the end, defined by a pilaster strip. This end bay contains one similar upper window and one small ground floor casement window.
