Description
The building consists of rubble forecourt walls and gates at Tyn y Coed, dating from the late 19th century. The barn features slate roofs and has an off-centre entrance on the right, which includes a recessed contemporary pegged doorcase and a 19th-century boarded door. To the left, there are two small 19th-century fixed windows with four panes each. The southeast gable has a loading bay above an entrance, flanked by windows similar to those on the left, with modern windows at the rear. The barn is adjacent to a modern open timber carport.
To the left of the barn is a single-bay stable addition that shares a continuously-roofed structure with the barn. It has a stable door on the right. To the right of the stable, there is a carthouse that is stepped up and flush with the rest of the range, featuring a shallower pitched roof. This carthouse has modern boarded doors for a large cart entrance and a recessed upper loading bay with a 19th-century boarded door and doorcase facing the road.
At the road end, the barn is joined by late 19th-century rubble walls that feature a pair of contemporary decorative iron gates with scrolled ends, segmental struts, and spear-headed finials. The rubble forecourt walls extend northeast for about 5 meters before terminating in a further southwest return.
Inside the barn, there are four crude pegged collar trusses, and the ceiling has been removed.
