Description
Bryngof is a two-storey farmhouse with a single-bay lofted stable range, along with a barn and cowhouse built at the southwest end. The farmhouse is constructed of rubble masonry with small packing and is limewashed, while later additions feature large boulders as quoins. It has stone gable stacks and a tiled ridge, but the roof is now covered with profiled asbestos sheeting. The front of the house faces northwest and has a three-window range with openings offset to the right; the central first-floor window opening is now blocked. The house was extended at the rear with a hipped-roof staircase block, which includes a dairy under a catslide roof in the southeast angle. A brewhouse was later added in the opposite angle, retaining a small brick chimney at the northeast end, and these later additions have slate roofs. Some original small-paned sash windows remain, although they are in a ruinous condition.
The lofted stable is positioned at the front under a catslide roof, which retains small grouted slates. A raking gable dormer was removed during roof repairs in the mid-20th century. Access to the ground floor is through a single doorway on the right side of the rear elevation, with a single loft window to the left set under the eaves.
The barn is partially lofted at the northeast end, with access to the loft via a flight of external stone stairs at the front. There is a single loft window at the rear above a wide doorway at the northeast end. Opposing narrow doorways are located at the opposite end, and all doorways feature segmental brick heads. The barn is built of rubble masonry and has a slate roof, which was re-roofed with used slates in the late 20th century.
The cowhouse has been altered in the 20th century, with several original doorways partially blocked to create windows. It is constructed of rubble masonry and was re-roofed with false slates in the late 20th century.
Inside the house, there is a large stepped fireplace with a massive bressumer and corbelled interior. The ground floor features chamfered beams and joists, and the posts of the plastered post and straw partition remain visible.
