The position and plot layout of these semi-detached chalet bungalows is similar to many late 19th or early 20th century farm cottages – although such builds were normally houses. They were not there at the time of the 1901 census and I suspect (but may be wrong) that they were built in the early 20th century as part of the Ashridge Estate under Lord Brownlow, of Ashridge House.
