Description

Cwm Main is a 2-storey farmhouse dating from 1766, featuring a 4-window main range with a large service wing at the rear. The building is constructed of local rubble with a whitened facade and has a slate roof, which includes rendered end chimneys and a further rubble chimney located off-centre to the right. The main section to the left has three windows, while the right side includes a 1-bay brewhouse. The entrance is slightly offset to the right and features a boarded door with a rectangular 3-pane overlight. There is a 20th-century rubble and wood porch that is open to the front and has a lean-to roof. To the left of the porch, between the ground and first floors, is an inset slate plaque with the incised date 1766 and the initials R M W. The windows throughout are Victorian four-pane sashes with projecting sills and lintels, particularly prominent on the taller ground floor windows.

The right-hand section, which appears to be contemporary, has a boarded door to the right and similar windows on both floors, including a repaired 6-pane sash on the ground floor. The rear of the main range features a small original 2-light leaded window on the upper floor to the right and a further fixed 4-pane window at the centre of the ground floor. The left side of the rear wing has modern small-pane tilting windows, while the south side includes an entrance with a 20th-century brick porch and a 19th-century 4-pane casement on the first floor, along with two modern windows on the ground floor. A 20th-century greenhouse/conservatory lean-to is attached to the south gable end of the main block.

In front of the main elevation, there is a garden enclosed by low rubble walls that curve around to the right, where they meet the right gable end. Inside, the main left-hand room features a beamed ceiling, with stopped-chamfered joists and a main beam that appear to be reused. A Victorian stick baluster stair leads to a plain entrance hall.
