Description
Pair of C18/C19 brick cottages set back from the village green behind hedge. Orientated so that
their principal elevations face onto The Green. Two storeys, the buildings sit beneath a gabled roof
laid in tile. Mid ridge stack marks the division between cottages. Brick end stacks. Cottage to the
right (facing) has symmetrical elevation with central doorway contained within enclosed gabled
porch. Cottage to left (facing) does have an irregular elevation which includes a ground floor bay
window, but nevertheless maintains the strong void to solid ratio which typifies C19and post C19
buildings. Both buildings despite later alterations present attractive elevations to the green and in
terms of their form, massing and outline sit well within their historic context. Local Heritage Assets in conservation area (1).
