History

One of a group of cottages and houses in Cottage Orne style for the Trevalyn Estate while it was under the stewardship of John Boydell. The range at the front appears to have been added to an extant building of C19 character. It is not shown on early C19 maps of the village suggesting that it was not then part of the Trevalyn Estate and may have been built or modified mid C19. It is known houses were being built in the style as late as 1838. Altered C20.
