Description
Clannaborough is a detached cottage dating from the early 17th century. It is constructed of rendered or painted cob or rubble and features a thatched roof. Originally designed as a cross-passage two-room house, it has been extended to the right with an additional bay. To the left, there is a low wall section in line with the front, which includes remnants of a stone two-light transomed window.
The cottage has two storeys and features a total of three windows on the ground floor: a two-light casement with a transom and horizontal bar, a three-light casement, and a smaller three-light casement on the far right. On the first floor, there are two two-light horizontal bar casements set in eyebrow dormers. Centrally located in the original block is a half-glazed 20th-century door set within a round arch made of wood, complete with a keystone and fluted pilasters, and sheltered by a swept-down thatch hood supported by light wood.
The left gable features a stack, and there is a ridge at what is assumed to be the original outer gable. The back of the cottage has a roof that sweeps down to the left over a small square light and two plank doors, while the right half has two small two-light casements and shows no evidence of a possible back door to the cross-passage. The right gable includes a square light to the roof space, two two-light casements on the first floor, and a central door below, while the left gable is plain.
Inside, there is a stone spiral stair that has been cemented over, along with a 19th-century wooden stair. The interior features many 19th-century two-panel doors and simple beams. The roof has not been inspected, but straight feet to the roof principals are visible.
