Nos 1 and 2 are unaltered externally, with boarded doors; Nos. 3 and 4 have late C20 small-pane glazed doors with intersecting Gothick tracery to match the windows. Windows to front of all cottages have 4-pane casements surmounted by intersecting tracery of wood in pointed arched openings: 4 gabled projections to rear contain yards between. A door and window are on the right side only of each projection. Originally the terrace contained 8 dwellings (in line, not back-to-back) of which alternate cottages had access from front and back.
