Cowhouse at Ysgubor-fawr

The cowhouse is a simple rectangular building of rubble stonework on boulder footings, the walls splayed out at the base. The original roof of slate or straw is now replaced with corrugated iron. Gable entrance raised on a stone revetted ramp at the E end, with a small vent opening above, and a secondary entrance into the stock yard at the W end. It has a 2-bay corrugated iron lean-to feed store on the N side. One opening in the W end with a raised sill and a later window added above.

The interior is of four roof bays, principal rafter and tie trusses. It has a cobbled floor with the central walkway kerbed and slightly lowered. Four short timber stall divisions one one side, and a stone slab on the N side. At the W end, two calf pens, each with a manger, the partitions supported by a further standing stone.
