Description
Upper Wernddu is a farmhouse with an adjoining outbuilding, dating from the 17th century, with later alterations and additions from the late 19th and 20th centuries. The structure is built of sandstone rubble, painted on the main house, and features a 19th-century tiled roof, while the adjoining outbuilding has a corrugated metal roof. The building has a rectangular plan with a lobby entry, oriented east to west, and includes an east gable-end stack. The outbuilding is attached to the east, with additional minor later additions at the rear.
The farmhouse is two storeys high with attics. The entrance front has three 3-light casement windows that show signs of hoodmoulds and the positions of former mullions. To the right of the doorway, there is a window with a 19th-century cambered head, alongside a heavy wooden framed doorway with a segmental head and a battened door. The left-hand return retains a 3-light diamond wooden mullioned window.
Inside, the interior has been altered but still features chamfered ceiling beams and a segmental-headed doorway. There may also be traces of a stone winder staircase against the main stack. The adjoining outbuilding on the left has four triangular vents and a square-headed doorway.
