Description

Orsedd Goch is a single-storey, two-unit cottage featuring gable end chimneys and a modern gable end lean-to. The exterior is made of limewashed rubble walls and has a heavily grouted roof covered with small slates, topped with narrow stone gable copings. The right chimney, which serves the kitchen, is wide and includes capping and flaunching, while the left chimney, serving the bedroom, is smaller but has similar detailing. The main door is offset to the left and is flanked by four-pane sash windows, which are in very poor condition. There is also a door on the left side of the rear elevation that leads to the kitchen. The modern lean-to on the right has rendered walls, possibly of brick, and a corrugated asbestos roof.

Inside, the cottage has a two-unit plan divided into a kitchen and a bedroom by a boarded partition. The main door opens into a short entrance passage with boarded wainscot on the right, leading into the kitchen. There is a narrow inglenook fireplace on the right and an external door on the rear wall. A boarded door in the center of the partition provides access to the bedroom, with timber boarding on the reveals.
