Description

Penybont is a two-storey house constructed from coursed rubble masonry, featuring long stones as quoins and lintels. It has a roof made of small slates, with stone copings and stone gable stacks that include dripstones and capping. The main façade faces the road to the west and consists of a three-window arrangement with the openings shifted to the right (south). The doorway is positioned with a four-paned casement to the left and an enlarged opening to the right, which now contains a glazed door. The first-floor windows are small casements located directly under the eaves. Additionally, there is a blocked ground floor window in the south gable. The interior could not be inspected during the survey.
