Description

Trefan is a building originally designed with a two-unit plan, featuring a central stair hall that was added in the 19th century. The structure is constructed from roughly coursed and shaped boulder rubble in large blocks, topped with a modern slate roof that has red tiled cresting and end wall stacks. The gable on the right is coped. The central entrance has a flat stone lintel above a part-glazed doorway, with four-pane sash windows on either side. To the left, there is a larger window with a heavy stone lintel that serves the principal room. Above, three small two-light casement windows are positioned below the eaves.

Local climate

Trefan sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,550 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 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 79% of listed buildings. Of these, 8 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.
