Description

Frondeg is a two-storey house built in the second quarter of the 19th century. It is constructed of rubble and has a slate roof. The central entrance has a 20th-century gabled porch, partially boarded. Windows are located on both floors, with the first-floor windows being 19th-century sash windows with 12 panes. To the right of the entrance on the ground floor is a 20th-century window with a renewed slate label; to the left is a 19th-century sash window with nine panes and a simple slate lintel. Projecting slate sills are present throughout the building. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
