Description

Cefniwrch is a small, single-story croglofft cottage with an attached agricultural range, dating to an unknown period. The cottage is constructed of rubble stone, which is whitewashed, and has a roof of small, graduated slates. It features rendered end stacks, with a large, square stack to the left. A small loft-light is set into the roof slope on the right side. The cottage is double-fronted, with a stable door located to the right of the centre, and a six-pane sash window on either side. Slab lintels are used above the windows and door. A rear lean-to and a lean-to on the left end wall are 20th-century additions. To the right, downhill, is a linear range of single-story outbuildings with four openings, containing 20th-century doors or windows. Low stone walls are attached to the house, enclosing a narrow front garden.
