Description
Ty Iocws, also known as Yoke House, is a two-storey building with attics, constructed from local stone that is rendered and lined. The front features raised rendered quoins, while the unrendered rear wing has a slate roof. The three-bay front includes a lean-to verandah, which is also slated and extends one bay beyond the gables at each end. There is a lean-to at the northwest gable end, supported by wooden columns and featuring a slate floor. Inside, there are three French-type windows, with the center window serving as the garden entrance, and 16-pane sash windows on the first floor. All openings have bold label hood mouldings with end drops and stiff-leaf terminals. The building has triple-flued stacks that are linked at their outsetting heads.
The long rear wing consists of two parts. The section closest to the house has three bays, a part-glazed door within a small late 19th-century porch, and tall 12-pane sash windows on the first floor. The garden front features a canted bay window at the first bay next to the slate-hung gable of the main block, along with modern uPVC windows. The second part of the rear wing, which is now a separate dwelling, is similar in style, has a large front porch, and has been considerably altered at the rear.
