History

One of two semi-detached C18 cottages with timber-framed rear wing to No 1. Marked on 1833 map as owned by the Powis estate, and on 1839 tithe map as occupied by Pryce Weaver. No 2 is double-fronted and faced in brick, No 1 is smaller, faced in stone and apparently added, though timber-framed rear wing may suggest earlier origins. Set below road level with hooped iron railings along road and gate of similar design.
