Tall chimneys on Windy Arbour

These two pairs of semi-detached houses form a striking contrast to the surrounding modern Kenilworth suburbia. I have not been able to find out anything about them. They have a Bournville, Arts & Crafts look to them, which would suggest a late 19th or early 20th century date, but they are not on the OS Six Inch map from that era. They look a bit too grand for estate cottages. Some of the chimneys lean alarmingly.
