Description

On the southern-most edge of the conservation area, fronting on to the road is Three Cottages. The dwelling is unlisted but makes a positive contribution at the entrance to the conservation area. The house is of whitewashed brick under an old clay tiled roof which was once thatched until the 1950s. The house at one time was three separate dwellings which were sold for no more than £600 in 1959 and were then renovated and enlarged as a single dwelling. From the path to the rear of Three Cottages there is a view eastward to Pulpit Hill and Whiteleaf Cross. A significant building within the conservation area of Meadle (B1).
