Description
Penrallt is a pair of estate workers' cottages built in the 19th century, featuring a two-storey symmetrical design in the mild Gothic style commonly used by the Newborough Estate. The cottages are constructed from irregularly coursed rubblestone with brownish red brick dressings and chimney stacks. The south-west side has been covered with 20th-century pebbledash. The cottages have a slate roof with exposed purlin and wall-plate ends at the bargeboarded gables, which have slate soffits. Prominent square ridge stacks are equipped with paired and rebated shafts, stepped capping, and chimney pots.
The right cottage, known as No. 2, has a façade divided into three bays. It features a steeply pointed and slightly projecting gable at the center, with a tall 8-paned window above a round-arched doorway. This doorway is flanked by gabled eaves dormers that contain 2-light 6-paned windows above 20-paned mullioned and transomed windows, with the central sections being vertically sliding. The ground floor of both the front and rear gables has identical windows, although the first floor features 16-paned windows. The linking range to the left cottage has 20-paned windows on both the front and rear walls, with gabled eaves dormers directly above. There is a lean-to porch at the angle of the front gable, which has been extended with a 20th-century brick gabled structure.
The left cottage, No. 1, mirrors the arrangement of No. 2 but has an unextended boarded porch, and the glazing bars have been removed from most of its windows, some of which are now leaded. The interior of No. 2 was not inspected during the survey, but it is noted to have an incised slate fire surround.
