Bron-y-foel-isaf

Bron-y-foel-isaf is a two-and-a-half storey farmhouse dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of local stone, rendered at the front, and features a slate roof with tall square stone chimneys at each end. The front has three windows; on the first floor, there is a larger central casement window flanked by smaller sash windows. The ground floor has an offset doorway to the left, with heavy stonework of a cyclopean doorway partly visible where the render is missing, and a 4-pane sash window on each side. To the left, there is a two-storey latrine projection with a lean-to slate roof that served both floors. The left elevation has a square window on the first and second floors, along with two small windows in the attic. The right elevation features two small windows on each floor and in the attic, except for the enlarged left ground floor window.

At the rear, there is a single-storey outbuilding range at right angles, built of local stone with slate roofs. The south elevation has a doorway flanked by square windows and a square stone chimney to the right, beyond which are three pigsties. The rear also has remains of a cutting shed and a waterwheel.

Inside, a door leads to a cross-passage that retains parts of post-and-panel partitions at the front of the house. There is a wooden stair to the rear, which may date from the 18th century. At the back of the passage, there is an entrance to the basement, which was originally a dairy accessed from outside. To the left of the passage is the kitchen and the entrance to the latrine. To the right is the hall, which features a large open fireplace with a heavy wooden beam above it. To the left of the fireplace, an original tightly winding stone stair ascends to the first floor and attic. The first floor is unusually high, approximately 3 meters, with an elaborate ceiling comprising four bays and twelve panels framed in three ways, with stopped chamfers on both the beams and joists. There is 19th-century partitioning and a blocked fireplace to the north. In the attic, the roof has three original collar-beam trusses with raking struts.
