Description
Carbery and Bracon Cottages, along with an adjoining cottage to the east, form a row of three cottages dating from the late 17th century. They feature rendered stone rubble walls and a thatched roof that is hipped at the left-hand end and gabled at the right, where it connects to adjacent houses. There is a brick stack at the left-hand end and two axial stone stacks, with the right-hand one being a double stack made of granite ashlar.
In terms of layout, Carbery Cottage on the left has a one-room plan, Bracon Cottage has two rooms, and the adjoining cottage on the right also has a one-room plan. Each cottage has one room that is heated, and there is a 19th-century addition at the rear.
The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with four windows, featuring early 20th-century two-light casements and slight eyebrows in the thatch over some first-floor windows. Bracon Cottage has a two-window front, while the others have a one-window front. Carbery Cottage has a 20th-century stable-type door to the right, which is located under a gabled door hood. There is a passageway to the right that runs from the front to the rear of the building. Bracon Cottage has a 20th-century part-glazed door at the center, and the cottage to its right has a similar door.
Inside Bracon Cottage, there is a roughly chamfered ceiling beam and what is likely the original roof structure, which consists of straight principals with lapped and pegged collars, a morticed apex, and purlins running along their backs.
