History

Early C19. The terrace carries a stone above the entry marked with the letters D E J and the date 1832, though Cartrefle may be a little earlier. many of the windows have a stylistic feature (diagonally crossed bars in the upper parts of the lights) found locally from about 1815. The initials appear to link these cottages with Victoria Terrace nearby.

Exterior

As a three-window cottage with a casing to its front door and framed by shallow brick pilasters, Cartrefle appears to have been of higher status than the other five cottages of the terrace.

Slightly asymmetrical window openings with rubbed brick flat arches and stone sills, except at bottom right where the window is altered to a late C19 pair with a stone lintel. The windows generally are 16-pane hornless sash windows; the pair at bottom right are horned sash windows with small panes in the heads of the upper sashes only.

Reasons for Listing

An integral part of a terrace of early C19 cottages, well preserved apart from some minor alterations of detail.
