Description

Tai Newyddion is a row of cottages built in the late 18th century or early 19th century. They are constructed of rubble stonework and have slated roofs. The design suggests they were originally intended as two pairs of cottages, each featuring shared raised dormer windows on the upper floor. Each cottage consists of a single bay and has 16-pane sash windows on both floors, along with a lateral door. The chimney stacks are positioned on the party walls, and the raised dormers have sloping roofs.

The cottages have modern glazing, and there is a painted hardwood door hung to the original frame with an overlight. The ground floor window and the dormer of the cottage are linked to that of No 1.

Local climate

Tai Newyddion sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,610 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 99% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 99% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 11 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 89% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
