STRETE BLACKPOOL SX84NE Bridge Cottages 6/238 II
Pair of cottages, probably originally one house. Late C17 or C18, extended and divided into 2 cottages probably in C19 and restored in C20. Colourwashed stone rubble and cob under the eaves. Thatched roof with half hipped right end and gabled left hand end abutting hipped tile roof extension. The front wing has gable-ended tile roof. Large stone rubble stack with slate weathering at left hand gable end of original house and lateral stack at rear of right hand end with tall rendered shaft with turned clay pots. Plan: Probably originally a 2-room and cross-passage plan, the lower left (east) end room heated from a gable end stack and the right hand room has a lateral stack at the rear. It was probably in the C19 that the house was converted into 2 cottages and a wing added to the front (north) of the right hand end. The extension at the left (east) end is probably later and was originally open on the ground floor. The outshut (porch) on the front of this extension is a later C20 addition. Exterior: Asymmetrical north front. Blocked doorway and windows at the centre of the main range; projecting gable-ended wing to right with C20 2- light casements with glazing bars and with late C19 glazed door on left hand inner side with 3-light casement above. To left of front a C20 outshut in front of extension with C20 plank door and casement. The left hand (east) end appears to have been open on the ground floor but is now filled in and has C20 casement on both floors. Asymmetrical 4-window rear (south) elevation, large C20 2-light casements with glazing bars and concrete sills. Interior: Was not inspected.
