Brown Robin (Three Adjoining Cottages of the Same Name)

Three houses, dating from the late 17th century with 18th-century additions and later alterations. They are built with painted roughcast over a rubble base and have slate roofs.

The central house, No.2, is the oldest, featuring a two-cell plan. It retains some rebated and chamfered mullioned windows, with two and three lights to the left of the doorway, and two lights to the far right, the latter having been moved from No.1 during the 20th century. A casement window with a painted surround is located directly to the right of the door. The three first-floor windows are similar in style. The doorway has a plain rendered surround. The chimney, situated at the junction with No.3, has a large rounded cap.

No.3, on the left, has a front wall that is angled back and features one window bay with casement windows and plain reveals. A lean-to against the gable wall on the left has a door and a window in its front wall.

No.1, on the right, is taller and has two bays. The right-hand window bay has rebated and chamfered mullioned windows of three large lights. The left-hand bay features a window on the first floor and a door below, both with plain reveals. These are 20th-century alterations; an earlier photograph shows a two-light mullioned window on the ground floor and a blank wall above. A chimney with a rounded cap is on the right-hand gable.

The interior of No.2 contains exposed chamfered main ceiling beams, a spice cupboard with an oak door in the left-hand room, a stone stair to the rear, and two upper cruck trusses rising from the first-floor level.
