A terrace of 3 Picturesque cottages, the central one slightly set back. Each cottage is symmetrical, 2-storey, 3-window, with an advanced central bay. The cottages are roughcast under slate roofs with central brick ridge stacks; the upper storey on projecting brackets to suggest timber framing. The windows are mainly late C20 plain-glazed wooden casements.
