Description
Brynrhug Farmhouse is a two-storey building, with raised eaves and three windows. It is constructed from coursed rubble masonry with boulder foundations. The roof is moderately pitched and covered with quarry slate, featuring plain eaves, deep verges, and plain bargeboards. The farmhouse has tall square stone stacks with moulded caps and water tabling.
On the first floor, there are shallow upper sashes with 12-pane windows on the left and centre, and a deeper 12-pane sash on the right, all positioned under the eaves. The ground floor has 16-pane sash windows on the left and right, both with stone lintels. There is a doorway to the left of centre, also with a stone lintel, featuring a slate hood supported by iron brackets. The door consists of two glazed panels over two flush panels. To the immediate right of the door, there is a small, four-pane fixed light window with a stone lintel.
At the rear elevation, there are later outshots and a 19th-century gabled cross wing set against the hillside, along with a modern rendered stack and a modern porch on the side of the outshot. The front of the farmhouse features a good cobbled yard arranged in rectangles with kerbstones. To the left, there is a later 19th-century house with twin gabled dormers.
Internally, the farmhouse was reordered in the 17th century and includes stop-chamfered transverse ceiling beams and ogee stop-chamfered joists. A timber bressumer has been partly cut away. The 17th-century plank and muntin partitions have been reused to create the entrance hall. There are also later ovolo moulded plank and muntin partitions alongside the stairwell leading to the first floor. The 18th-century staircase features sturdy turned balusters, square newels, and a bipartite handrail that sweeps up to the landings, with splat balusters at the top landing. The stair window retains some leaded glazing and a cross shape. The roof is a three-bay design with two through purlin collared trusses and splayed feet on the principals.
