Description
The stable at Dref Cerrig Farm is an early 17th century, two-unit regional house with an end chimney. The eaves were raised at the front in the early 19th century, and the interior was re-ordered during this time.
The building is two stories high and features three windows. It is constructed of rubble masonry and has a moderately pitched slate roof, with a steeper original pitch at the rear. The eaves are plain with close verges, and there are square stone stacks with simple caps and water tabling. The first-floor windows have shallow upper sashes and consist of nine panes, set under the eaves. To the left on the ground floor, there is a twelve-pane enlarged window with a stone lintel, and to the right, a two-light casement window with 17th-century dimensions and a deep stone lintel. The doorway is offset to the left of center, having been narrowed in the 19th century, and features a stone lintel and a plank door.
At the rear, there is a late 19th-century lean-to made of rubble masonry with a corrugated iron roof, which includes a window with a stone lintel on the left.
Adjoining to the left is a 19th-century stable that is also two stories high, built of rubble masonry with a slate roof and plain eaves. It has a plank loft doorway set under the eaves at the front, a similar plank door to the ground floor on the right, and a window to the left, all with stone lintels. There is a brace plate at the extreme left and a plank door on the end elevation with a stone lintel. A lateral stone chimney is located on the left side at the rear, with a pitching door to the loft alongside. The interior is bisected by a stone wall and features a corner fireplace.
Inside, there are stop-chamfered transverse ceiling beams, with the end beams resting against the walls and similarly stop-chamfered joists. A bressumer with broach stops to the chamfer is present, and the ceiling beam is cambered over the site of a stone stair to the left, with a door recess in the back wall and a half-truss over a well on the first floor. Plank and muntin partitions, re-used from around 1800, form a small central service room. There is an L-shaped stair from around 1800 set against the front wall by the door, featuring a plain handrail and flat balusters. The roof has three bays with two collared trusses and original purlins.
