Description
Beudy Newydd is a single-storey T-shaped house constructed from rubble on boulder foundations, topped with modern slate roofs. The northwest wing, which was the former domestic section, features a squat end chimney, while the southwest wing has a modern lateral chimney with a conical upper section. The main entrance is located on the northeast gable, which has a gently-cambered head, fine slatestone quoins and voussoirs, and a crude dripstone with corbel stops. Above the entrance is a slit light and a slate plaque carved with the initials K A (for Katherine Anwyl) and the date 1666.
A modern, single-storey porch, which is slate-hung, extrudes between the northeast and northwest wings and has a deeply-recessed part-glazed door. The primary ground-floor opening on the northwest gable, now a window, contains early graffiti on its splays, including dates from 1688, 1731, 1733, and 1767 among others. The southwest gable features a large round-arched opening with a deeply-recessed small-pane picture window. Above this window is a rectangular recess that holds an inscribed slate dedication stone stating: 'Beudy Newydd remade 1951 for Fred and Diana Uhlman by Clough Williams-Ellis.'
Modern small-paned oak-framed windows have replaced those from the 1950s, varying from small 2-paned to large 8-paned designs. The long southeast side has a central flush gable that forms a cross-gable with the former residential wing, which includes a large 4-pane window on the upper floor and several slit lights, most of which are blocked. The interiors are plain and modern.
