Description
These buildings have an early 19th century appearance. The first edition Ordnance Survey map shows a row of 4 buildings here. Laurel Cottage is on the left, Lavender Cottage in the middle and Grange Cottage on the right. All are in different brick and evidently much altered. Grange Cottage (not in photo) is in red and grey brick. In the 1910 Valuation Survey Laurel Cottage is described as a cottage and smithy let to Mrs Harriet Cross. Elizabeth and Rebecca Cross were the tenants of Lavender Cottage but the owner was the Post Office. It was described as double fronted, with two bedrooms and of brick and thatch. Grange Cottage had just one bedroom and seems to have been occupied by someone called Batts. [Photo] (B1).
