Two storeys, with semi-basement; single-storey addition at rear of No. 1. Two-window front, each cottage having its front door to the left of the ground-storey window. Each door has a flight of granite steps in front. No. 1 has its original plank door (with small inserted light) in a bead-moulded frame, while No. 2 has a 20th century glazed door. Windows have two-light wood casements with six panes per light, except for the second-storey window of No. 1 which has three panes per light. The ground-storey window of No. 1 contains old glass. Semi-basement of No. 2 has a 20th century window but at No. 1 the original small square opening survives, having a plank door (with small inserted window), on wrought-iron strap-hinges.
Interior of No. 2 considerably altered; interior of No. 1, seen through windows, seems to have no features of great interest, although the simple staircase looks original. Included for group value.
