Development History
October 1994: SCT receives information that a demolition application has been lodged. April 1995: The cottages are said to have been abandoned for over 25 years, and external inspection shows them to be in a poor state of repair, though wind and watertight with roofs intact.
November 2009: Direct access to the cottages was not possible during the site visit. Viewed from afar, the range appears to remain vacant. All but one of the chimney stacks have been removed since the last visit by SCT.
