Description

Tyn Twll is a single-storey cottage, likely designed with a three-room layout, oriented roughly east-west. It features a nearly full-length lean-to at the rear. The exterior is constructed of limewashed rubblestone and has a slate roof, which includes an integral end stack on the right and a larger ridge stack to the left of the center. The front of the cottage has six-paned sash windows on either side of a slightly offset plank door located to the right of the ridge stack, with two additional six-paned sash windows to the left. All windows are fitted with slate cills. The interior was not accessible during the survey.
