One of a pair of semi-detached former railway cottages adjacent to a footpath crossing the mainline between Hastings and London via Eastbourne, likely to have been built by the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway company in c1890 to accommodate its employees who worked on this line.
The cottage has an L-shaped plan with dual pitch slated roofs, tall chimney stacks, rendered elevations and an attractive open porch in the corner of the L with hipped slate roof and timber supporting posts. It is attached to another dwelling built at the same time (Railway Cottage) but this is too altered to include in this designation.
