Age

Late C19

Architectural and Artistic Interest

Middle two cottages of a row of terrace cottages. Two storeys in height set beneath shallow pitched gable roof, laid in slate. Regularly positioned chimney stacks break up the roof line and give rhythm to the streetscape. Set back slightly from the road, the buildings are constructed of buff coloured bricks with red brick lintels. Regular fenestration pattern. Despite loss of original windows, the scale, form, massing and outline of these buildings are in-keeping with the late 19th century character of the street.

Group Value

They form part of a group with 17 High Street (which retains its original shopfront and windows.) Cumulatively these properties provide a strong building line, creating a hard definition to the street edge and containing views.

Historic Interest

Part of the C19 development of Waddesdon estate village
