Historic or particularly important modern buildings.

Description

Pair of late nineteenth century farm labourers' cottages. 19th century semi-detached buildings forming a part 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 fenestration patterns are typically regular. Despite alterations to the fenestration details, the original form of the buildings are 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. A 'Local Building of Note' within the Conservation Area of Buckland (B1).
