(No.304 rendered), stone slate roof with late C19 brick
chimneys. Rectangular double-depth plan, each cottage
single-fronted.
2 low storeys, 1+1+1 windows; doorways to the right with
monolith jambs and lintels which are plain except for small
stopped chamfer, and all with recessed C20 board doors; 4-pane
sashed windows at ground floor, and low oblong 8-pane sashes
immediately under the eaves (which oversail). Ridge chimneys.
INTERIOR: surprisingly for such humble dwellings, No.304 has a

keeping slabs; others not inspected but may have similar
cellars.
