Description
Ysgubor-fawr is an old farmhouse that includes an attached farm building, constructed from rubble stonework and rendered, with parts that were once painted with red raddle. The building features a grouted old slate roof with stone gable copings and gable stacks. The door and windows have been recently replaced to mimic the original design, although one original 6-pane sash window remains, with the frames set deeply into the walls on either side of the door. The attached farm building, which is slightly narrower, has a lofted roof with a cross passage against the house gable and includes a 2-bay cowhouse at one end, topped with a granary that is accessed from a raised external ground level. There is also an extension to the dairy at the rear, which has an external door, along with a later rendered brick service building.
Inside, the door leads into the living room, which is separated by a short matchboarded partition. The floor is flagged, with some brick towards the rear, and there are two slender cross beams supporting the loft floor. The room features a deep fireplace with an iron range and a brick oven, along with a shelved recess and a small wall-hung dresser against the front wall. To the right of the fireplace, a corner is divided off as a dairy, which extends out and includes a cold slab. Steps from the dairy lead into the later extension. The adjoining farm building has a low floor above, and the cowhouse is open to the roof, featuring a 19th-century cross beam and a manger against the gable end wall. The raised front garden is bordered by battered boulder walls, which have a central opening and additional openings at each end adjacent to the house.
