Row of seven cottages of several building periods but probably C17 and C18.
Restored mid-late C20. Timber framing, partly exposed, to three centre bays
with render to the rest. Long straw thatch roof with six grey brick ridge
stacks of single flue. One storey and attic. Nine dormers and twelve small
window openings, some boarded, others with C20 glazing. The timber framing
is exposed in front and rear walls of three centre bays. The timbers are of
varied scantling suggesting that they have been reused and therefore probably
of late C17 date.
