Group Description
Nos 1-6 Hendre Cottages, Llanelidan
A symmetrical terrace of six two-storey cottages, in red brick with slate-roofed porches, slate roofs and red tile ridges; four large dominant yellow-brick chimney stacks fluted to suggest grouped stacks and carrying prominent corbelling at top.
The centre pair of cottages are slightly advanced and have large paired gables to the front and paired doors under a single bracketted porch roof; two-light windows centralised beneath each gable. Decoratve brickwork in the head of each gable. The other four cottages are arranged as quasi-symmetrical pairs with paired dormers, two-light windows beneath the dormers and single-light windiows in the outer positions; one door and porch in the angle beside the advancing centre cottages, the other in the end elevation. The whole terrace has a mid-height string course in brick. Timber casement windows each one or two lights in width, all except those against eaves with smaller fixed lights above transoms.
All the cottages in the group have two-storey recent kitchen and bathroom rear extensions, flat roofed, in a red brick not quite matching the original.
At the centre, above the joined porches, is a small carved monogram for Tom Naylor-Leyland, 1877.
