‘(8) COTTAGES (71431507), two adjacent, are two-storied with rubble walls and galvanised-iron roofs; they probably date from the end of the 17th century. The stonework of the S.E. front shows that until recently the cottages were single-storied with dormer-windowed attics. One first-floor window retains a chamfered wooden surround; the other openings are modern. Inside, stop-chamfered ceiling beams are exposed. The building has recently been modernised and converted into a single dwelling.’
