Description
The building is an L-shaped pigsty and store block at Ty'n-y-Ddol, dating from the 19th century. It is a single-storey structure made of rubble with a slated roof. The design features a central rectangular block with catslide projections on the right side of both the north and south ends. The northern projection forms the Ty Bach, while the southern projection serves as the pigsty. The pigsty has enclosing rubble pen walls at the front, containing two pens with plain entrances and an incorporated feeding shoot in the left pen. The Ty Bach has a boarded entrance on the east side and another entrance on the west gable end, which includes a modern boarded door and boarded infill to the left, along with an exposed timber lintel.
