Primrose Cottage is Grade II listed (ref. 1485/150). It dates partly from the mid- to late seventeenth century, and partly from about 1900, and is built of limestone rubble with timber lintels, with a thatched and old plain-tile roof.
No. 63 was one-up, one-down cottage, with an outside wash-house at the rear adapted as a kitchen and toilet, and was occuped until about 1969 by Bert Ward and his wife.
