Description

Brecon Cottage and Down View is a house that has been converted into two cottages, likely dating from the late 17th century. The building features whitewashed, partly rendered cob and rubble construction, topped with a thatched roof that is half-hipped at both ends. There is a brick stack at the right end, which is a lateral stack with a projecting bread oven on the south side, and it has been heightened in brick. The original layout was probably a two-cell house with a through passage.

The south side of the building has two storeys and includes two 2-light timber casement windows with four panes in each light, situated above an off-centre gabled porch that has a slated roof and a 20th-century door. Between the porch and the stack on the left end, there are two more 2-light timber casements; the one on the left has three panes in each light, while the one on the right has six panes in each light and is inserted into a blocked doorway. To the right of the porch, there are two single-light timber casements, each with four panes. The north side has later outshuts with 19th-century slated roofs.
