Description

Ty Popty is a two-storey cottage built in the second quarter of the 19th century, with later alterations from the 19th century. It is constructed of rubble and features a renewed slate roof, along with plain end and central chimneys. On the left side, there is an entrance with a modern part-glazed door, and to its left, a 4-pane 19th-century sash window. Above the entrance, under the eaves, is an original 9-pane unhorned sash window. On the right side, there is a later 19th-century two-storey wooden canted bay with plain sashes and a slate roof, topped by a gable that has deep verges and plain bargeboards. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
