Description

Glanymorfa Mawr is a building constructed from local rubble and boulders, topped with a slate roof. It features three bays and has one storey with an attic floor. The front elevation is symmetrical but slightly offset to the left, with a central entrance that includes a part-glazed panelled door. On either side of the door are late 19th century or early 20th century four-paned horned sash windows, and there are three additional windows in the raised and gabled dormers that light the attic floor. The building has gable end stacks. At the rear, one window has been replaced with a French window that includes side lights, and there are two similar raised gabled dormers along with one small roof light. The right-hand gable end has been rebuilt.

Inside, the front door leads to a through stair hall, with the kitchen located to the right and a parlour to the left. The kitchen features a large gable end stack with a simple firebeam above, along with two cross ceiling beams.
