This small row of cottages was added to the northern end of Mill Gate in the mid-1980s. They were designed by David Pickles, Chief Architect for Nottingham and Sherwood District Council, and feature shallow sweeping dormers and scalloped porches evocative of the gables sometimes seen on 17th-century buildings. A mix of pantiles and plain clay tiles along with a double dentilated cornice lends interest to the roof, and tiny gardens set the buildings very slightly back from the road behind a low wall. Most properties on Mill Gate front directly onto the pavement, here the low boundary walls and scalloped porches mean that the building line along the pavement remains unbroken but is interspersed with small pockets of greenery.
