Notification that Lurley Cottages has been removed from the List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. The principle reasons for this are:
Alterations were undertaken between the building's assessment for listing and the formal notification of listing. These alterations significantly reduced the special interest of this group of cottages, with the result that they no longer meet the criteria for listing, although they do retain local interest.
Lurley Cottages comprises a range of three attached cottages, No. 1 being larger than Nos 2 and 3. No. 1 was a good example of a 17th century vernacular building of cob with a thatch roof. Unfortunately between the time of the building's assessment and the formal notification of listing, it underwent considerable renovation resulting in the loss of its thatched roof and roof timbers, reordering of the ground plan and replacement windows.
Nos 2 and 3 are believed to date to the late 18th or early 19th century. Much of their interest lay in their group value with No. 1. They too have undergone considerable alteration, also loosing their special interest.
