Description

Abbey Lawn Cottages were built as a speculative development for the Abbey in the 15th or early 16th century. The terrace originally ran from no. 34 to no. 51 Church Street, though only nos. 34-48 survive. The cottages were restored from 1967 and are an important surviving example of a medieval terrace. They are Grade I Listed.
