That's the inscription on the wall tablet above the hedge, with the initials H.E.R. This is quite an urban looking terrace to find in an out of town location. I'm guessing it was built for workers at the nearby Maidenhead Brick and Tile Company, which operated just across the road. Trouble is, Googling "Warminster Cottages" gets you stuff about holiday accommodation in Wiltshire.
