Description
Coed-y-Fronallt is a Gothic-style house dating from the 19th century. It is a two-storey building with three windows, constructed from coursed rubble masonry. The roof is moderately pitched and covered with slate, featuring raking gable copings and obelisks.
The first floor has three pointed lights with transoms, with the outer windows located under gables. These windows have stone lintels and sills. The ground floor mirrors this design, flanking an open stone gabled porch supported by square pillars. The porch also has raking gable copings and an obelisk finial. Above the entrance door, there is a rectangular fanlight with two pointed glazed upper panels.
The side and rear elevations feature casement windows. At the rear, there is an outhouse with whitewashed rubble walls and a moderately pitched slate roof, which has exposed rafters at the eaves. The outhouse has windows with unglazed fixed lights flanking a central doorway, with timber lintels and stone sills.
