Description

Single building designed in 1870 Three cottages built c.1870 by the Bulstrode estate. High Victorian style with decorative brickwork. Red brick laid in Flemish bond. Blind brick arches over ground floor windows leave little room for first floor windows. Slate roof with ridge crest and two prominent corbelled ridge chimney stacks. Brick modillion cornice. Central gable with pierced barge boards. Three gabled porches – one for each cottage with similar pierced barge boards and timber finials. Raking brick window sills. Stone keystones to arches over windows and stone at sides of some window sills. Casement windows – some altered. The set-back of these cottages diminishes their visual impact. This is a local building of note within the Conservtation Area of Gerrards Cross. (B1)
