Description
Built of local rubble stonework with the joints flushed up, on boulder foundations, a Twll Llwyd slate roof with one gable end stack with drip courses to the higher southern section, and a second stack added in the 1950s on the junction of this section with the earlier, lower range to the N. Long basalt columnar tie stones bedded in sphagnum are recorded by RCAHMW. The lower range is single storeyed with attic and has a boarded door with chamfered lintel, flanked by small windows in deep reveals, one in original splayed jambs, the other inserted. 2-light casement windows and gabled dormer in rear wall also inserted. The higher S section has timber door with 2-light casement windows, one to each floor (unaligned) set deeply in reveals. The upper window is in a simple dormer, originally with a cat-slide roof, and gabled c1890. Later rear wing (partially reconstructed) with lean-to conservatory added in 1980s renovation work.
The S section of the present house comprises one room on each floor: ground floor has 3 chamfered cross ceiling beams and deep stop chamfered joists; gable end fireplace with a high set lintel and broach chamfer stops, and stone spiral stair on right. Slate floor. Upper room has tapered principal roof truss with high-set collar carrying 2 purlins each side. The E principal was inscribed at some later date 1562 / RW. Doorway near front wall of main ground floor room opens onto N range, but the internal arrangement of this section is the result of 1980s work: however, the original roof timbers survive: 2 trusses with morticed collars.
