Description

The building is a stable, barn, and cowhouse located at Prysan-fawr, dating from the 19th century. It consists of a long range divided into two parts. To the left (west) is a lofted stable and corn-barn under a single roof, while to the right (east) is a lower cowhouse range. The structure features rubble walls and segmental rubble stone arches with dripstones above the openings. The roofs are covered with old small slates that are grouted, and the gables have rubble or tile copings.

The stable at the west end has one door on the left side, a narrow window, and a blocked door on the right. An external stone staircase leads to the loft on the west gable, with steps descending to the north and south. The corn-barn has narrow doors on opposite sides, with the rear (north) door converted into a window and two vertical ventilation slits to the left (west) of the door. The cowhouse range features a narrow central door leading to the feed passage, flanked by wider doors for the stalls. There is a vertical ventilation slit between the doors, with the central door blocked. At the right (east) end of the range is a loose-stall or calf-shed that also has a blocked door.

Originally, the stable accommodated three horses and included a servants' loft above. The barn consists of three bays supported by collared trusses made of sawn timber. The cowhouse has four bays, with a central transverse feeding passage and stalls on either side.
