The buildings are irregular fenestration pattern of the wing facing onto the road, appears to result from later alterations to openings. The simplicity of the buildings outline and articulation is a key element of its character and these aspects are similar to other C19 works cottages found through the village. The building, despite some later alteration is significant because it reflects a period of growth within the village when the economy was based on agriculture.
