Battlesbridge

Beeches Road

Should not be included
Description/name:
(1)1 Timber Wharf Cottages
Address:
Beeches Road Battlesbridge Rawreth Essex SS11 8TF

Description:
Two storey semi-detached cottage; mainly constructed between 1830 and 1838; white weatherboard (traditionally painted black to the sides); grey slate hipped roof; replacement windows; side extension with white weatherboarding; central chimney stack; oriel window to the ground floor with a grey slate roof.
Justification
1-7 Timber Wharf Cottages are an attractive group of buildings situated in the Battlesbridge Conservation Area. There have been some alterations to the cottages, however, as noted in the Battlesbridge Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan, the extent of these alterations has not as yet undermined the overall coherence of the group or their traditional character. It is also recognised in the Plan that this group of cottages are one of a number of unlisted traditional buildings which are both locally significant and contribute to the character of the area. However, these cottages are not considered to have individual value and as they are protected by being in the Conservation Area, they should not be included on the revised list.
