Description
Terrace of 4 nineteenth century farm labourers' cottages, now 2 houses.
19th century semi-detached buildings forming a part of a group of 19th century labourers cottages
built in the village at the time of agricultural prosperity reflecting a need to provide accommodation
for an increased work force. The buildings within this group are typically constructed of brick, were
semi-detached or terraced and are simple in their original layout and form. The majority have
relatively shallow pitched gabled roofs laid or formerly laid in slate and regular fenestration
patterns. Despite alterations to the fenestration details and the addition of extensions to the
principle elevations, the original form of the buildings are still recognisable as late 19th century. The
buildings are primarily significant in terms of their contribution to the social history of the village
and their group value. 'Local Building of Note' within the Conservation Area of Buckland (B1).
Shown as 4 properties on the 1870s 1st edition 25-inch OS map.
