Description
Tyn Llwyn is a cottage with an attached cowhouse, dating from the 18th century. The cottage is a single-storey, two-room structure with a small catslide outshut at the rear on the left side. It is aligned roughly from north-east to south-west, with an additional room under the same roof line to the south-west, which also features a catslide outshut at the rear. A lean-to cowhouse is attached to the gable end of this room, with its north-east wall rising above the slope of the main roof and the catslide roof to the rear, providing extra height. There is a similar lean-to on the north-east gable end of the cottage, set back, with its south-west wall also rising above the main roof slope. This lean-to has been extended to the front with 20th-century additions.
The building is constructed of roughly coursed rubblestone, primarily limewashed, although the left gable end is rendered and the right side of the ridge stack is without surface finish. The roof is covered with grouted slate. The main cottage features a four-paned sash window on either side of an offset boarded door, which is sheltered by a shallow gabled porch with a basket arch. There is a substantial integral end stack on the left and a ridge stack on the right at the junction with the third room, which has a boarded door to the right of the stack and a six-paned window adjacent to it, along with a small rooflight directly above the door. The cowhouse has a boarded door at the front, and the left lean-to includes a narrow painted brick chimney at the north-east corner, with small windows in the rear outshuts.
Inside, the room to the left of the entrance has a blocked fireplace and is ceiled at purlin level. The room to the right has a low ceiling and a loft, which may have been a croglofft, accessed from a very small room at the rear.
