Summary

An early 19th century row of four timber framed and rendered cottages, under a pantiled gable roof. No.24 has an asymmetrical-roofed single-storey pantiled extension with a canted 20th century bay window to the street. There are 20th century flat-roofed single-storey extensions to rear of Nos 26 and 28. Internally, there is evidence for conversion from a non-residential use - probably originally as a farm building. The rear wall was formerly colonnade of chamfered hardwood framing, probably for use as a cart lodge.
