Description
Bodfasarn is a 17th-century house built of rubble with slate roofs, featuring coped gables and kneelers, as well as gable stacks. The building has an 'L'-shaped plan, with the main three-bay front range including a cellar at the northeast end, and a lower extension to the southwest that serves as a service area. The central entrance has a part-glazed door framed by large granite quoins, flanked by windows that have projecting slab lintels, and there are three raised dormers with shallow pitched roofs. All windows are 20th-century sash emulations made of uPVC.
The later rear wing is a single storey with an attic, whitewashed, featuring a 16-pane window on the ground floor and two closely spaced narrow gabled dormers above. The ground floor window has a projecting slate slab head. A boarded door located at the angle between the rear of the front range and the rear wing has a large slate slab that also serves as a porch for the rear door leading to the cellar in the main range. There is a gable stack with weather courses.
Additionally, the rear range is extended by another building, now a separate cottage called Ty'r Celyn, which was converted from earlier stables. This cottage has a central door with a window on each side.
Although not inspected at the time, a plan from the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales indicates that there is a cross passage leading to a rear door dating from around 1600, featuring a cambered and chamfered head, and at the narrower southwest end, there is a large blocked fireplace. The interior also includes stopped chamfered ceiling beams.
