Description
The boiling house and pigsty at Rhos y Gad are constructed from coursed rubble with large stones used as quoins, and some areas feature widely slobbered mortar. The roof is covered with small slates, has a tiled ridge, and stone coping at the eastern gable. The boiling house opens onto a cobbled area in the southeast corner of the farmyard. It has a boarded door located at the right (west) end of the northwest wall, and another door in the eastern gable leads into the pigsties, which still have feed chutes along the eastern sty wall. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
