Ciltalgarth and adjoining Agricultural Range

Ciltalgarth is a large farmhouse with integrated agricultural ranges, built in the 1830s and of an irregular plan. The main house is T-shaped and two-and-a-half storeys high, with a coach-house addition to the north and lower agricultural and service wings projecting to the west. These wings partially enclose a service courtyard to the southwest and a farmyard to the northwest, connected by a through-gateway.

The building is constructed of rubble, with rough-dressed slatestone to the later, eastern house wing. It has slate roofs with oversailing eaves and verges, the verges featuring simply-moulded bargeboards. Plain axial chimneys are present with double cornice bands.

The main south-facing house elevation has a two-bay, asymmetrically gabled wing projecting to the left (the primary range) and an 1830s wing adjoining to the right. The primary wing has a tall 12-pane sash window on the ground floor, with smaller 12-pane sashes on the first floor and a 9-pane sash in the attic. The recessed wing on the right has the main entrance in the corner - a flush, six-panel door with a rectangular overlight. A large 12-pane sash window is to the right of the entrance, with two 9-pane sashes above. The right gable mirrors this pattern, with single windows of 12-, 9- and 9-pane configurations. A projecting lateral chimney, cut off at eaves height, is visible on the rear of this wing. A 1960s single-storey brick and felt porch, with 4-pane sashes, is built out in the rear angle between the wings. Adjoining this wing, stepped down to the north, is a coach-house block with wide boarded double doors to the left, a brick forecourt in front, a modern corrugated iron lean-to shed to the right, and a boarded loading bay in the upper gable.

The west-facing side of the service courtyard is rendered and has a lateral catslide outshut to the right. It features 12-pane sashes on the first floor, with a later three-part 9-pane window on the ground floor to the left (the kitchen) and a similar six-pane window to the right. A one-and-a-half storey adjoining service wing is advanced to the left, with two boarded entrances, each with a window to the right—a four-pane fixed window to the left and a modern window to the right. Similar four-pane windows break the eaves on the upper floor, contained within two shallow gabled dormers with triangular glazed gables. A modern garage door and window are located to the left. A full-height through entrance is visible to the left of this, followed by another entrance with a boarded stable door and a boarded window. A modern, slated, three-bay carport adjoins at right angles to the west. Beyond the through entrance to the north is an adjoining contemporary range with two entrances to the left – boarded and stable-doors with pegged frames. This wing terminates to the far right in a two-bay open hay barn section with rough slate piers.

The interior was not inspected during the survey.
