Description

Ty-Ucha-Bach and Ty-Ucha-Mawr is a two-storey house featuring a three-window range, with a later cross wing added to the left. The building is constructed of mortared rubble masonry and has a slate roof with tall stone stacks at the gable ends of the original range, complete with dripstones and capping. The original range includes a central doorway set within a gabled porch and twelve-pane hornless sash windows. To the left is an advanced wing, which may have been added as a service wing and is now a separate dwelling. This wing has an entry through a wide door beneath a shallow overlight with glazing bars on the right side of the gable elevation, while the windows to the left are four-paned horned sashes. The interior could not be inspected at the time of the survey.
