Description
Ty Mawr Farmhouse is a long one-and-a-half storey vernacular end-chimney farmhouse, with a later agricultural addition on the right. It is constructed of rubble, with the house being pebble-dashed and featuring battering at the front. The left gable has a pronounced boulder plinth. The roofs are slate, with the house section having a modern slate roof and tiled ridges. The squat end chimneys have weathercoursing and plain capping.
The entrance is off-centre to the right and features a deeply-recessed 19th-century boarded door. To the left of the entrance is a small square ground-floor light, followed by a 4-pane late 19th-century sash window, both of which appear to be original openings. To the right of the entrance are two additional sash windows that are similar but slightly larger. The attic floor has three 4-pane casements that break the eaves and are contained within gabled dormers. At the rear, there is a modern catslide extension with an adjacent porch. The original rear entrance is blocked, with 4-pane glazing in the small original flanking windows, and there are three large modern skylights on the rear roof pitch.
To the right of the farmhouse, slightly raised, is the agricultural range, which has a window opening on the left and a further blocked opening under the eaves on the right. Beyond this is a large cart entrance with recessed boarded doors. To the right of the cart entrance is a flush cross-gable with a similar entrance and window above, featuring modern plastic glazing and slate lintels throughout. There is external stone-stepped access to an upper boarded door on the long right return. A later single-storey lean-to is located at the rear, with a modern continuously-roofed extension to the right, topped with a corrugated iron roof.
The farmhouse likely had a former cross-passage plan, with some chamfered main beams and plain joists visible. The interior features a late 19th-century stair and doors.
