Braidwood District Historical Society Museum
Built in the 1840s by colonial surveyor James Larmer as the Royal Hotel, this building later served as an Oddfellows Hall from 1870 and as wartime housing. The Braidwood Historical Society purchased it in 1970 and restored it as a museum. It was listed on the NSW State Heritage Register in 1999.

Mill Complex, Braidwood
This granite-and-brick precinct spans several eras: the corner building rose in 1839 as Hendricks & Jacobs' Old Post Office Stores, while the 1859 Albert Buildings began as two shops before conversion to steam-driven flour milling in the 1860s. Listed on the NSW State Heritage Register in 1999.

Albion Hotel, Braidwood
Built around 1872, this two-storey rendered-brick building was once Braidwood's leading hotel and a Cobb and Co coach stop. Its verandah was destroyed by a tornado in 1884. The hotel closed in 1933, later becoming a store; it now houses shops and apartments and joined the NSW State Heritage Register in 1999.
