Description
Ty Mawr is a building constructed of rubble, standing one-and-a-half stories tall and topped with a modern slate roof. It features stone-coped and kneelered gable parapets, along with end chimneys that have weather-coursing and capping. The entrance is flanked by irregular windows for each unit, but there are inappropriate modern doors and glazing throughout. The roof has four irregularly spaced gabled dormers, with two for each unit, also fitted with modern glazing. At the rear, there is a central gabled extension that represents a mid to third-quarter 19th-century remodelling of an earlier lean-to addition. Additional modern windows have been inserted into original openings, and there is a small lean-to known as Ty bach on the right side.
Inside, both units have large fireplaces at their gable ends. The fireplace on the right features an ogee-stopped chamfered bressummer and a pegged oak frame that once held a shelved salt-box recess on the left, where a child's boot and some animal bones were recently discovered when it was reopened. The opposite fireplace has cruder run-off stops. The upper ceilings in the right unit have ogee-stopped ceiling joists and beams, while the left unit mostly retains original run-off stopped beams. A modern part-open wall and screen now divide the unit spaces, and an ex-situ door-head section with the carved date 1666 belonged to a recently destroyed screen. The upper floor has a six-bay roof with original oak boarded screens separating bays three and four, and part of four and five. The truss between bays five and six has been replaced, but the remaining trusses are original upper-cruck trusses with pegged collars.
