Monymusk Square, c.1830/40. No 1 a type fossil: granite ashlar, deep eaves and heavy dormers dignify this little single-storey, two-window and centre-door cottage. Diamond-paned glass is the final archaising - and anglifying - feature. No 2, rebuilt 1890, reconstructed 1969: ashlar granite centre gable. No 3 very similar to No 1 and symmetrical with No 2. No 7, c.1826, ?John Smith: on site of Moses Morgan's house, possibly incorporating some of its masonry. A double house, two storeys harled with margins, four windows, paired centre doorways and coped chimneys. No 8 is identical.
