Description

Tafarn Trip is a two-storey farmhouse constructed from roughly coursed mortared rubble masonry, featuring large stones both in the walls and as quoins and lintels. It has a slate roof with stone gable stacks that include dripstones and capping. The main facade faces south and consists of a three-window range with a central doorway. The windows are two-light timber casements, while the first-floor windows are smaller and positioned under the eaves. There is an additional doorway that is deeply recessed in the east gable, likely a later addition. At the northwest corner, there is a single-storey modern outshot that includes another doorway in the east wall. The interior was not inspected during the survey conducted in June and July 2003.
