Description

Rhondda House is a late 18th century building that was originally two cottages but has been converted into a single dwelling. It features whitewashed stone and a slate roof, along with two stone chimneys. The exact date of construction is unclear, but it is likely from around 1779. The long, two-storey facade has a modern glazed door and three square sash windows on each floor, all set within plain stone architraves.

It experiences an average of 57 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 96% of listed buildings. Of these, 36 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
