Two storeys, most houses only one bay. No 28 now 2 bays, having lean-to single storey extension to South gable; upper storey in the projecting main gable rendered; plain casement windows, late door to side: this house enlarged substantially at rear. No 29 apparently absorbed into 28. No 30 has C20 plain casement windows and late C20 stone and corrugated asbestos sheet porch with 8 panel door. No 31 is similar, but with rendered doors to porch and glazed aluminium door. No 32 has plain casements and earlier boarded door, nos 30-32 have segmental arched heads to lower windows & no 32 has segmental arched doorway. No 33 is the corner house with projecting chamfered gable, with leaded steel casement windows and corner porch shared with no 34, which has a casement below and a steel window above. No 35 has 2 bays, with lean-to porch in South East corner, bay 1 projects, with mid C20 small pane casement windows, but over the porch is a leaded semi-circular casement one of the few surviving original windows. Interiors not seen. Newtown is a planned layout, of c1818, with originally some 80 thatched cottages; it is said to have originated as a vote-catching scheme. This terrace although altered, retains a few original details not seen elsewhere, and helps to illustrate the original concept. Primarily included for group value.
