Description

Detached three-bay two-storey pair of workers' houses, built c.1850. These are finished in squared granite blocks. The panelled part door is set within a small gabled porch, which is set on the side elevation. Window openings are flat-headed top-hung aluminium replacement frames. First floor windows are surmounted by small gable peaks. The hipped roof is finished with natural slate and has cast-iron rainwater goods. Chimneystacks are constructed in ashlar granite with corbelled caps and clay pots. The houses are set back from the road behind small mature gardens.

Appraisal

These workers' houses are well preserved and compliment their semi-rural setting.
