These were built in the mid-18C. Note the plat band of brick between the storeys, and the lintels of 'gauged bricks'. These are thin wedge-shaped bricks forming a 'flat arch' whereas the lintels on the end wall are modern copies made from standard bricks. The roof is half-hipped, with fish-scale tiles in the gables. This view is looking westwards. For another photo and more details see http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/search/details.aspx?pid=1&id=288148
