Description

The farm buildings at Glanllyn Farm consist of a barn, likely dating from the late 18th century, which forms the core of the group. An L-plan stable range was added later against the gable end of the barn, along with other ancillary buildings attached to its front wall. The barn is constructed from local rubble field stone, with larger stones used as quoins, and features slate roofs. It has an enlarged wide doorway in the rear wall, accompanied by paired tiered vent slits to its right. There are windows on each floor, likely related to the addition of a loft, with a loft entry to their left. The gable end displays dove holes and ledges at the apex, along with a small lower opening that has a massive stone lintel. The front elevation includes a projecting gabled wing and an integral lean-to.

The stable block is an L-shaped range, with a taller section at the south end. It is built of local rubble stone, with dressed stone used for the lintels, and also has slate roofs. The higher block is symmetrically arranged, featuring a central doorway (with a plan door and over-light) and a tall loft entry above. There are flanking windows on the ground floor and a boarded window at the upper right. A loft door is located in the gable end, although the stairs have been removed since 1999. At the rear, there is a lean-to, and stepped down from this is a smaller stable or store, which has a small-paned window to the left of the doorway and a small boarded window above it. This range extends beyond the barn to the rear, featuring a second divided doorway and a window on each floor. At right angles, there is another probable stable with a near-symmetrical elevation, including a central doorway and flanking windows, all with heavy stone lintels. There are two upper windows located at the left and center, both featuring small-paned glazing.

The tall stable at the south end incorporates a ceiling from Hen Glanllyn, likely dating to the late 16th century. This ceiling features cross-beams with deeply moulded chamfers and a rare central boss with a hexfoil motif, along with deep chamfered joists.
