Description
Conway is a small house, probably from the 18th century, and possibly even older. It is built of plastered cob on stone rubble footings, with stone rubble or cob stacks topped with 20th-century brick, and has a thatched roof. The house features a three-room-and-cross-passage plan and faces west onto the road. The left section, which includes two rooms with a passage between, may be older than the right section, which is a single room that is set forward both at the front and back. The central room has a rear lateral stack, while the left room has a large projecting gable end stack. The house is two storeys high and has an irregular front with three windows, featuring 19th and 20th-century casements with glazing bars. There is one single window in the right section that projects forward. The front passage doorway, located to the left of centre, contains a late 19th-century door. The roof is gable-ended on the right and half-hipped on the left. The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the survey, but it may include carpentry details that are older than the 18th century.
