the date plaque. Plastered cob on stone rubble footings, rebuilt with brick; stone
rubble or brick stacks topped with late C19 Rolle Estate chimney pots.

right (south-eastern) end and No.2 to left. The outer rooms have end stacks, the
left one shared with Rose Cottage (q.v.) and the right one of exposed brick and
projecting a little. There is an axial stack in the party wall between the cottages
serving back-to-back fireplaces. Both are 2 storeys.
Each cottage has a symmetrical 2-window front of C20 replacement casements with
glazing bars arranged about a central C20 plank door. There is a limestone plaque
set high in the wall between the cottages. It is inscribed and bears the date 1893
with Mark Rolle's initials.
Interiors have plain carpentry and joinery detail. Roofs not inspected.
