Middle Cynynion Farmhouse and Attached Outbuilding

Middle Cynynion is a farmhouse with an attached outbuilding, likely built in the late 17th century, with extensions from the late 18th century and partial remodeling in the mid-19th century, along with later additions and alterations. The farmhouse is constructed from uncoursed limestone rubble and features a slate roof. It has an L-plan layout, with an 18th-century range extending at right angles to the rear on the right side, where the eaves have been raised to two storeys. The front has mid-19th-century cast-iron casements flanking a central boarded door, and all ground-floor openings have painted brick segmental heads. There are prominent integral end stacks on the right and at the gable of the rear range, along with a gabled stone addition on the far right.

Inside, the main ground-floor rooms have chamfered spine beams and joists with straight-cut stops, and there is a chamfered spine beam in the 18th-century range at the rear. A timber-framed cross wall with irregular square panels and a plank and muntin door separates the main ground-floor rooms, and there is a chamfered beam over the fireplace in the right-hand ground-floor room.

The outbuilding is attached to the left gable end of the farmhouse and is made of uncoursed limestone rubble, which likely replaced a timber frame, with the left gable end rebuilt in red brick and a corrugated iron roof. It has three doors on the ground floor and an eaves hatch to the right of center. Inside, the single-purlin roof is divided into two bays and features a central tie beam truss with raking struts supporting the principal rafters and wall posts.
