Thought to have been originally a row of late 16th century cottages, clad in brick c.1800 by William Mellish, of Blyth Hall. Listed Grade II. The Gothick window frames were probably the work of Joshua Walker, the Rotherham ironfounder who purchased Blyth Hall in 1806. The distinctive Gothick iron window frames are thought to have been added by his successor, Joshua Walker, the Rotherham Iron Founder, who bought the Hall in 1806.
