Berth-Lwyd

Large storeyed stone farmhouse with later wing at north end and lean-to sheds to the south. 3-unit main block with 2-bay additions to right. Of long slate rubble, roughly coursed, with modern slate roof and slab-coped, kneelered gable parapets; crude stone corbelling to original eaves line (raised during modern restoration). Squat end chimneys and central stack, all with weathercoursing. Original openings with mostly small, square windows, all with modern casements. On the east (entrance) side is a canted, gabled projection containing a primary stone newel stair, with partly overhanging upper section to the L return. The entrance is to the L of this, and has slate steps up to a deeply-recessed boarded modern door; similar opposing entry to rear. To the L of the front entrance is an irregular stone projection, probably a primitive mounting block. The adjoining wing to the N is flush with the stair projection for half of its length before stepping back to the R. The rear of this is built into the slope and has a rubble revetment wall dividing a modern terrace from the rear of the primary house; modern 3-bay glazed wall with rubble dividing piers to this.

Modern ceiling and roof timbers. Wide stone newel stair within the stair projection, with a modern tunnel access created through the primary end wall, leading to the addition.
