The buildings, single-storey cottages located on Pier Road, are made of whinstone and sandstone rubble with pink sandstone margins and dressings. Both possess timber diamond-paned casement windows. Each cottage has a pair of octagonal corniced chimney stacks with octagonal cans.[2]

The buildings are shown on the first-edition Ordnance Survey map, surveyed in 1864.[2] They are an identical pair with Yewbank and Lonaigview, Fernlea and Ivy Cottage, Laurel Cottage and Ravenslea and Rose Cottage and The Sheiling.[2] Two of the five are on the northern side of the street; three on the southern.
