Description

Row of three C19 cottages arranged in an L shaped plan, prominently positioned towards the front
of their plots on the eastern side of Station Road. Two storeys in height, the buildings sit beneath
gabled roof laid in slate, the ridgelines of which are punctuated by chimney stacks. Constructed
primarily of orange brick with areas of buff coloured brickwork. The buildings are irregular
fenestration pattern of the wing facing onto the road, appears to result from later alterations to
openings. The simplicity of the buildings outline and articulation is a key element of its character
and these aspects are similar to other C19 works cottages found through the village. The building,
despite some later alteration is significant because it reflects a period of growth within the village
when the economy was based on agriculture. Local Heritage Asset in conservation area (1).
