SX9055 CHURSTON ROAD, Churston Ferrers 1946-1/6/55 (West side) 10/01/75 Nos.1-6 (Consecutive) West Terrace
GV II
Terrace of 6 estate cottages. Mid/late C19. Squared and coursed stone rubble with red-brick door and window surrounds; most of the latter now rendered with cement. Slated roofs. Rendered chimneys on the party-walls. The cottages appear to be 1 room wide and 2 rooms deep. Doors of Nos 1 & 6 are in the side walls. 2 storeys. 6 windows wide. Gabled entrance porches to Nos 2-5, arranged symmetrically so that those of Nos 2 & 3 lie to the left of their ground-storey window and those of Nos 4 & 5 to the right. Doorways have 3-sided arches; plank doors with strap-hinges, ornamented handles and letterboxes. Porches have plain bargeboards. Windows have small-paned 2-light wood casements, those in ground storey with transom-lights; in ground storey, 4 tall panes below and 4 short ones above, in upper storey 8 panes per sash. Those windows still with red-brick surrounds are segmental-headed; that is to say, the upper-storey window at No.3 and both windows at No.5. The upper-storey windows rise above the eaves-line to form low dormer gables with plain bargeboards. The side walls have porches and windows like those at the front, except that No.1 has a deeper porch of plainer design (lacking 3-sided door-head) and painted brick. Rear walls (visible from Brixham Road) have windows and dormer-gables like those at the front. The front garden walls, gates, gate piers and railings are separately listed (qv). The terrace is not shown on the Churston Ferrers tithe map of 1839.
