Barn Ranges at Dolrhyd

The Barn Ranges at Dolrhyd form an L-plan group and date from the late 17th century to early 18th century. The lower stable range is dated 1763 and is initialled W V Esq, indicating it was built by William Vaughan. Both structures were restored in 1980. They feature rubble walls and a slate roof, with the barn using old small slates. A chimney stack is located on the left gable end of the stables.

The barn has gable end parapets with quarter round moulded kneelers and dove boxes on the right gable end above a string course. There are slit ventilators, all of which are blocked, around the building. A Tudor label rests over a cambered arch that once served as a cart entrance, now fitted with modern glazed infill; there is a corresponding cart entrance at the rear. A boarded door is positioned at the right end.

The symmetrical two-storey stable range has eight windows and features a central pediment with a small circular window. It has small first-floor windows, casement windows, and half-glazed doors on the left, with twin former coach entrances on the right, which have cambered voussoir heads and modern glazed infill.

The interiors have been modernised, but the barn retains a seven-bay roof supported by pegged A-frame trusses, curved struts, and purlins.
