Gerddi Bluog

Large building comprising the fabric of a late C17 farmhouse which was extended to it''s rear (S) by a 2-window C19 wing to form a T-shaped plan; altered and further extended by an L-shaped block to N in mid C20.

Built of coursed rubble masonry with large stones as quoins; the S gable of the C19 wing is rendered. The openings of the C19 wing (and some windows in the C17 part) have stone lintels and the windows have slate sills. The C20 addition has large mullioned windows, thought by the owner to be of cast cement rather than stone. Slate roof with tiled ridge and slate copings; gable stacks at W end of C16 part and S gable of C19 wing.

The building comprises 2 main builds, of different character, with the principal (more formal) part to N having advanced wings flanking a central block, which in turn has a central entrance flanked by large windows of 9-small paned lights; the main doorway has a Tudor arched head of raking stones. The southernmost of the advanced wings is the altered C16 farmhouse which is abutted by the C19 wing. This part has a more vernacular character, the entrance is offset to the R (N) end of the C19 wing and has the re-set stone lintel which bears the date and initials: MP 1667; windows are horned sashes of 12 and 16 panes.

The interior was modernised when the building was extended and altered in the mid C20. Retains the original central ''front'' doorway to the late C17 farmhouse, raking stones set in the local style as the head.
