Description
Bridge House, also known as Ty Bont, is a lodge-scale house with later additions. It is two storeys high and has three bays, with a lower one-bay wing set back to the right. The building is constructed of randomly-coursed, roughly-squared stone blocks and is topped with a modern slate roof featuring deep verges and eaves, plain modern bargeboards, and simple end chimneys.
The central entrance has a boarded door, and above it is a first-floor projecting bay supported by shaped corbels, which has a hipped roof. There is a rectangular projecting oriel window, also corbelled, with plain glazing. On the ground floor, flanking the entrance, are similar corbelled bays with hipped slate roofs, and above these are first-floor dormer windows with hipped roofs. A plain stringcourse runs between the ground and first floors. The lower wing to the right has an end chimney and a modern window in the front, set within a primary opening.
To the left, there is a 20th-century corrugated iron addition. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
