No 10 has a longer light to the top floor, suggesting a workshop within. Large brick stacks. No. 14 adjoins, and is a 2 storey cottage, possibly rather later. Single unit plan, with doorway in wood architrave and a single 3 light horizontally sliding sash window, with cambered head. The group are apparently frame work knitters cottages.
