II
Terrace of nine cottages. 1846, altered. For the Furness Railway Company to house their workers. Red sandstone now mostly pebble-dashed and stuccoed; graduated slate roofs with sandstone capped ridge. Two storeys; each has single window to each floor; to right of No.2, the cottages step down in reflected pairs. Nos 2, 3 & 4 are least altered and have quoined doorways, dressed lintels and projecting sills. Each pair has its doors together flanked by square-headed windows; smaller centralised first-floor windows. Later doors and various casements; No.9 has a 16-pane sash. Broad stack at right end and at each step in roofline.
Important as first row of cottages built following the arrival of the Furness Railway; on 10.1.1846 the company requested 10 cottages 'to be built as cheaply as could be, the price if possible, not to exceed 100 pounds each' (Pollard).
