Description
Groes Las is a small single-storey farmhouse with a two-unit plan, built from rubble and originally limewashed. It has a random slate roof, which had the slates removed during an inspection in August 2003. The gables feature boulder copings, and there are chimneys at each gable end with dripstones. The doorway is offset to the right and is flanked by modern windows in original openings that have stone lintels. There is a later outshut at the rear.
In the later 19th century, tongue and groove partitions were added, creating a three-room layout with a staircase in the center and a small room to the rear, possibly a service room. The original layout likely consisted of just two rooms, with the main room on the right featuring a large fireplace and a bread oven, which has a chamfered timber bressumer above it. The smaller parlour on the left was also heated, although its fireplace is now obscured. All beams and joists are limewashed.
Upstairs, the space is now a single room that includes a small fireplace above the parlour. The roof features two collar trusses that are very crudely pegged and minimally jointed, along with rough purlins.
