Roughcast cob on stone footings; hipped and gable-end thatched roof. Built as a range of single depth cottages with a later wing (probably C19) at right angles to right; no. 3 is heated by an axial stack, no. 4 by a rear lateral external stack, both with brick shafts. 2 storeys. Exterior Front (south): 5 window range with weatherboarded extension to left. First-floor casement windows are all C20, 4 under eyebrow eaves, the fifth with lintel at eaves level. Ground floor: 3 C20 casement windows, with late C20 porches (one to each cottage) and glazed leantos. C20 windows to rear.
