Row of 3 cottages possibly originally 4. Mid C17 to early C18. Rendered and
plastered cob walls. Gable-ended thatch roof. 3 brick axial stacks.

service room to the right. Halcyon Cottage has a single room plan. Sunnyside at
present consists of 3 rooms, of which the right-hand one used to be a shop, but it
may formerly have been 2 cottages.

part-glazed door to left. Sunnyside has long asymmetrical 3-window front of circa
late C19 4-pane sashes on the 1st floor and ground floor apart from late C19 or
early C20 shop front to right. C19 panelled and part-glazed door to left of centre.
