LOCAL LIST Nos. 1 to 7 were once the family homes of local coastguards. They have a green front garden next to the Grey Horse Public House. The cottages are brick with slate roofs, sturdy brick chimneys and a first floor cill string course of white glazed brick. No. 5 has a former carriage arch and good four-pane sash windows above. No. 7 appears the most authentic with paired four-pane sashes and timber mullions to ground and first floors.

Description
LOCAL LIST Terraced houses with a strong presence. An almost continuous terrace of 18th and 19th century houses broken only by Chicks Lane (HER 12512) and Staffords Lane (HER 12513). Nos. 5 to 35 are on the Local List. The grassy strip in front of them is part of the original village green. This strong group of buildings has a harmonious frontage, a limited palette of materials and common characteristics, but each house has been built separately and there is notable variety in style, form, size and plot width. The terrace is unified by the range of low stone, brick and stucco walls and mature beech and privet hedges to small attractive front gardens. No original railings survive. Nos. 1 and 2 are in mellow sandstone with tiled roofs and central gable. They have traditional shop frontages. The upper floor has uPVC windows. The rest of the houses are either sandstone or red brick with Welsh slate, clay pantile or plain cly tile roofs with brick or stone chimneys. The building line is stepped. No. 27 has finial details on the gable. No. 25 has canted bays. Nos. 19 and 21 are in stucco incised to look like stone. No. 31 (formerly the Rose Joicey Convalescent Home and later a theatrical boarding home, now a house called Kingarth) has full height bays and cast iron decoration. Some original sash windows, mostly with tripartite divisions of mid to late Victorian period. No. 19 has uPVC windows, Nos. 27 and 31 have Velux-style rooflights. No. 25 has dormer and oriel windows. Front doors are generally a and 6 panel with decorative semi-circular or rectangular fanlights and curved timber door hoods. No. 25 and a classical door surround.
