Group Description
Nos. 6 to 9 Picton Terrace (consec.)
A C18 group in terrace form, originally consisting of five or six cottages. They appear to be shown on the 1750 estate map. The level of the eaves at front was formerly about 0.5 m lower than now, and following the reconstruction of the roof disproportionately large C19 windows have been inserted in the upper storeys of nos. 6, 7 and 8. The mark of the original lower roof level is also evident on the W gable.
No. 6 has been formed from two originally single-fronted cottages. No. 7 appears to have been originally double-fronted, as it is now. Rough-cast render on no. 8 obscured its original form and the alterations to no. 9 obscure its original form also. The width of each of the latter two suggests they were single-fronted. It is said locally that there were pigsties in the forecourts of these cottages.
Now a terrace of 4 houses. Rubble masonry, slate roof, with tile ridges and brick end-stacks. Each house 2 storeyed, 2 window range.
