Dolrhyd House

Dolrhyd House is a three-storey building dating from the late 16th century, featuring a five-window front made of coursed local rubble. The central gable has a pediment and contains a four-pane lunette window. To the extreme left is a broad lateral chimney breast from 1596, which has been later heightened and includes a polygonal end. The roof is mostly covered with renewed slate, although the left end retains old slates. There is one rubble chimney stack on the ridge and twin stacks on the left-hand chimney, along with several rubble stacks on the rear ranges.

The second floor has bull's eye casement windows that hinge at the center, with dummy windows on either side; the left dummy window is stripped of its paint. The first and ground floors feature Victorian four-pane sash windows. A central porch, possibly a later addition, has a pitched slate roof with a finial. It includes voussoirs over a tall round-headed small-pane window at the front, a similar four-pane window to the left, and a boarded door entrance to the right. The chimney breast displays a coat of arms in a stone frame dated 1835, initialed V, RW, AM, and is also signed. Below this are seven Elizabethan stones inscribed in Latin. Tudor-style labels are present over the first-floor Victorian sash windows on the left end, with small pane casement and French windows below. There is a vertical masonry break on the return elevation below the chimney stack.

At the rear, there is a two-storey and attic cross range built in two periods. The northern part is slightly lower and features a dog-legged lean-to that runs almost the full length of the east side, primarily with sash windows, and it adjoins a shallow cross range at the right rear of the main front. The earlier part has mainly Victorian sash windows and one gabled dormer, while the later part has cross-frame windows. The central advanced bay has an attic roundel similar to the main front, with a splayed bay below and a smaller gable over the end windows. Small slated canopies are present on the gable end of the cross range.

The property is surrounded by rubble terrace walls. Inside, the entrance hall retains a stone fireplace with a timber lintel, while the front right room features a reused Jacobean fireplace and overmantel, which is said to have been previously a bedhead, along with stop-chamfered beams. The 18th-century openwell timber staircase has thin turned balusters, acorn newel finials, a swept-up handrail, and 's' carved tread ends.
