Description

Group of three nineteenth century terraced houses with another house to the rear Group of 19th century buildings situated at the end of Wellcroft. 38-42 form a short terrace and front onto the road, 34, sits behind. Simple 2 storey brick buildings sitting beneath shallow pitched gabled roofs laid in modern slate or tile. Original windows and doors have been lost and in some cases the openings have altered and porches added. The buildings have been highlighted as being of local note largely because of their group value. They form part of a group of 19th century buildings which represent a period of expansion and development within the village. It was during this period that Wellcroft itself was developed from a former track. Despite significant alterations the buildings retain their original form, scale, massing and outline. Local note buildings within the conservation area of Ivinghoe (B1).
