Description
Ty Newydd Farmhouse is a farmhouse from the third quarter of the 17th century, featuring one-and-a-half storeys and a three-window front. It is constructed of rubble with a medium-pitched slate roof that has close verges and eaves. There is a rendered rubble stack on the left side. The north (front) elevation has three gabled rubble dormers, and there are three more on the south side. The north elevation also includes modern leaded casement windows. The central entrance is topped with a stone lintel, and there is a small 19th-century pitched rubble and slate porch with leaded windows on the sides.
A large modern extension built in 1965 to the west is not included in the listing.
Inside, the parlour on the left has a blocked fireplace, a plain run-off stopped beamed ceiling, and a contemporary post-and-panel screen that is partly plastered over. The former hall, also on the left, features a large inglenook fireplace with a very wide chamfered bressummer and a beamed ceiling with a large transverse beam. There is a small visible section of the post-and-panel screen. To the left of the fireplace, there is a niche, and the panelled door for this niche is in the possession of the owner. The contemporary wooden main doorcase within the porch has crude rolled ends and a stopped-chamfered lintel, along with three original bolt houses. The farmhouse has a three-bay upper cruck roof with pegged collars and through purlins, and most of the rafters are original.
