Description
Central U-shaped block with stables to the left (north) and cowhouse to the right (south). At their western end they are linked by a tall gabled gateway with round-arched entrance and brick voussoirs. Flanking the arch are full-height pilaster buttresses, gabled to the top and with slate coping as on the main gable. The design of this archway is similar to those on buildings known or believed to have been built by the 2nd Lord Newborough (eg the Workshops west of Glynllifon). This opens onto a passage between the rear walls of the flanking stables and cowhouse, both of which are entered from their outer sides. Both have rounded corners at their east end.
The stables have alternating split boarded stable doors and large windows with small-panes over slatted ventilators. Modern yards added for pigs. The rear has small-pane pivot windows below eaves and the uphill (east) gable end has an oculus and square-headed doorway.
The cowhouse has five segmental arched openings to its southern side facing an enclosed part of the farmyard covered by a pair of semicircular corrugated iron roofs. The east gable end has an enlarged opening onto the feed walk and an oculus to the gable. Central doorway to the inner side.
Cowhouse has king-post roof trusses but otherwise interior not accessible at time of inspection.
