Description

The L-shaped range of farm buildings at Glynllifon College Farm includes a small rubble-walled enclosure to the south of the arched gateway and cowhouse. Beyond this enclosure, there is a single-storey farm building with a rubble structure and slate roof, likely used as a workshop. This building features cross-frame windows, slate lintels, and an off-centre doorway. Attached at right angles to this structure is a cattleshed that forms the south side of the lower farmyard, extending up to the through-passage that connects to the tall barn. The inner side of the cattleshed has continuous openings, with four segmental arches flanked by square-headed openings at either end. The buildings were not accessible at the time of inspection.
