Description

Bodfel is a building constructed of rubble stonework that has been rendered and lined out, with graded slate roofs. It stands three storeys tall with an attic and features a symmetrical three-bay plan. The central bay extends both forwards and backwards, creating a cross plan, and was further extended at the rear in the 18th century to include a large staircase, which is now pebbledashed. The central bay is wider and gabled, featuring the main entrance at ground level. This entrance consists of a semicircular arch with 19th-century glazed doors set within a glazed screen, all framed by an unusually wide portico supported by correct Tuscan columns on a low die. The portico also features an architrave, a plain frieze, and a cornice that is broken forward over each column. On all three floors, there are 12-pane sash windows, with the windows in the central bay having label drip moulds that have curiously inturned dropped ends. The building has gable end stacks.

The interior was not inspected at the time of the review. According to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales, it is said to have 18th-century scenically painted panelling on the first and second floors, with bolection moulding on the first floor. Additionally, there is a very fine dog-leg staircase with finely turned balusters, three to each tread. The roof features pegged collar beam roof trusses. Adjoining portions to the west include kitchens and service areas.
