Hi
Could anybody offer abit of advice . I’m planning on replacing a few de faced bricks from the bottom corner of my house , I have replaced defaced bricks before without any issues but because it’s the corner its concerning me I think in total there is around 6 bricks , would I need to support the corner somehow ?
See pictures
Thanks in advance

That's a tough one I think if it was me if put a 1 metre acro further up then get another 1 metre acro dig a hole then place that in the hole with something solid in the bottom .of the hole so it's 2=3 courses higher than where you are working.

That's what I would.do, not saying it's right but most of the weight will be taken off at floor level acro
 
Just take them out and rebuild, no need for support, at most 1 or 2 above may drop, use a drill or cut off saw to remove the bricks carefully and most likely none will fall.
 
I can't see much of an issue, but if in doubt, do it in sections.
