Description

Bar Llewelyn is a building composed of two adjoining single-storey sections that are slightly angled in plan. The walls are roughcast and rusticated up to the tops of the windows, featuring simple pilaster strips and a slate roof. The left-hand (south) section has a parapet with outer ball finials and a raised gabled center that has scrolled sides and a blind keyed oculus. This section retains six openings, with the outer ones being narrower, and a panelled door set back from the right end. The left end window has replaced an earlier doorway. All openings feature keystones adorned with relief foliage, although the windows have been replaced. Above the windows is a broad inscription panel with a later painted inscription.

The right-hand (north) section has similar architectural details, including an inscription panel and parapet, but the gabled central portion of the parapet is blank, and a ball finial is missing from the right end. This section has four windows that have been replaced in their original openings, with cast iron grilles below the sills, and two cellar vents beneath. A stub wall is present at the right end. The right gable end features an external stack that has been reduced below the apex. The rear of the south range is made of rubble stone, while the north range is pebble-dashed, with a monopitched projection at its northwest angle.
