At present No. 2 consists of 2 cottages converted to 1. 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 3 window front, all 3-light circa mid C20 metal frame casements with diamond 'leaded' panes. 3 rustic thatched porches to left and right and right of centre; the left-hand one to No. 1 has C19 6 panel door, top 2-lights glazed.
