Description
Pentre Uchaf is a single-storey building constructed from very large squared coursed rough stone blocks, topped with a graded slate roof that was noted to be in poor condition during a survey in 1996. The building features a tall end stack made of similar stone blocks on the right side, which extends upwards against the end stack of an attached two-storey house. The front of the building is double-fronted and slightly offset to the left. On the left side, there is a small 4-pane sash window, while on the right side, there is a small 9-pane sash window, both of which have stone slab lintels. The central doorway is fitted with a boarded door and also has a stone slab lintel.
