Pair of estate cottages, now a house. Early C19, with late C20
alterations. Possibly by Jeffry Wyatville. Red brick with
hipped slate roofs. Central concrete block ridge stack and
smaller brick rear wall stack. 2 storeys; 1 x 3 bays. Windows
are mainly glazing bar sashes, some with slight segmental
heads. Central block has a 9-pane sash above and a 16-pane
sash below. On either side, a single storey hipped porch
running the whole length of the block, with a blocked doorway
to the front. Right return has three 16-pane sashes flanked by
smaller 2-light casements. To left, a board door. Left return
has a hipped projection to left, with a segment headed 12-pane
sash. To right, a C20 French window, then a segment headed
12-pane sash.
An estate cottage provided for workers on the Belton estate by
the Brownlow family of Belton House. The building has some
resemblance to Waterloo Cottages (qv), which are definitely by
Wyatville.
