Description

Creedy Bridge Cottages are a pair of cottages, originally three, likely built in the 18th century and altered in the 19th century. They are constructed from plastered cob on rubble footings, with rubble stacks topped by 20th-century brick and a thatched roof. The cottages face west and consist of two rooms each. The northern cottage appears to be the original pair of one-room cottages. There is an end stack on the southern cottage and an axial stack between the rooms of the left cottage, which serves the central room, while a rear end corner stack serves the left room. The left cottage also features an outshot on the left end. The buildings are two storeys high, with an overall five-window front that includes late 19th-century and 20th-century casements with glazing bars. Each cottage has a central door flanked by windows, with the fifth window located in the left end outshot. The interior displays plain carpentry details.
