Description
The Old Bath House at Trefriw Wells is a building constructed in dry-stone cyclopean style. It features paired entrances at the front, both arched, with the right entrance showcasing a 17th-century oak plank door that has an arched-headed frame and decorative wrought-iron hinges. The building is topped with a rustic crenellated parapet that steps slightly towards the center, and it has a large slate slab roof that slopes downwards from the center, with a central division and a part terrace at the upper rear.
Inside, there are two equally-sized cubicles separated by a wall that contains a later 19th-century pine door. To the right, there is a large slate bath trough.
