Description

Pair of semi-detached three-bay single-storey houses, built c.1879, now vacant. Rubble limestone walls with dressed limestone quoins and angled brick eaves course. Pitched slate roof with cast-iron ridge cresting and rendered brick chimneystacks. Paired timber casement windows with stone sills and lintels. Timber battened doors with stone lintels.

Appraisal

This pair of houses exhibit a degree of detailing which is not commonly seen in structures of this modest size, particularly in the dressing of the stonework, the angled brick eaves course, and the cast-iron ridge cresting. This pair was probably associated with the forge to the south-east.
