Glanywern

Glanywern is a house and shop built in the late 19th century. It features two storeys and a two-window range, likely constructed from rubble masonry with rendered elevations. The slate roof has broad rectangular stacks with drip-stones and capping on the gable ends, with the left stack shared with Ty Llwyd.

The right-hand unit has a late 19th-century shop front, which includes a central half-glazed door flanked by tall three-pane windows beneath a moulded cornice. Above this is a tripartite sash window, probably contemporary with the shop front. The dwelling occupies the narrow left-hand unit, which has a panelled door to the right under a shallow overlight with a central glazing bar. To the left, there is an unequal hornless sash window with nine panes and a slate sill on each floor.

To the right of the door, there is a slate plaque inscribed with: YN Y HWN GANWYD/Y CFANSODDWR/MEIRION WILLIAMS/GORFENNAF 19eg 1901, indicating that the composer Meirion Williams was born in this house on July 19, 1901. The building was not inspected at the time of the survey.
