Cartref and Attached Smithy

Cartref and the attached smithy are two dwellings that have been converted into a house. They date from the 17th century, with extensions added to the rear and left side in the early 18th century. The smithy, which is attached to the right, was built around 1840. The building features colourwashed render over stone and cob, with a thatched roof that is gabled on the left and hipped on the right. There is a 17th-century ridge stack finished in mid-19th century brick, and a 17th-century external stack on the left end, also finished in mid-19th century brick.

The structure has a one-unit plan from the 17th century, which was extended by one unit to the rear and one unit to the left in the early 18th century. It is two storeys high and has a three-window range. There are two 20th-century porches, one positioned left of centre and the other to the right. A 20th-century door is located to the left, while a mid-19th century plank door is to the right. The windows feature flat rendered arches over late 19th-century two-light casements. An adjoining late 19th-century outshut connects to the early 18th-century rear wing, which has an 18th-century two-light casement with leaded lights.

Inside, the room on the left has a cyma-moulded bressummer over an open fireplace, along with 19th-century quarter-turn stairs with winders. The room on the right contains a 17th-century open fireplace with a stop-chamfered bressummer. The principal rafters of the A-frame trusses are visible on the first floor.

The former smithy, attached to the right and built around 1840, is made of colourwashed stone and has a gabled slate roof with crested ridge tiles and an iron ventilator. It is a single storey with a 20th-century sliding door set in a double entry and a late 19th-century six-light window to the right. There are also 19th-century plank double doors leading to a cartshed on the right, and a mid-19th-century outbuilding at the rear made of brick with a Welsh slate and corrugated iron roof.
