Ty Ucha House

Ty Ucha House comprises a group of buildings forming a near-symmetrical three-storey, three-bay house dating to the late 18th or early 19th century, along with earlier and later additions. The main house has roughcast rubble walls on a part-boulder plinth, with a modern slate roof, stone-coped gable parapets, curved stone kneelers and rendered brick chimneys. A modern glazed and slated porch sits in the near-centre of the front elevation, flanked by near-flush, unhorned 12-pane sash windows. Dormers with smaller windows project slightly above the eaves. Stuccoed sill courses and window surrounds, dating circa 1900, include simple, shaped corbels. A lean-to addition to the right has a matching window and stucco surround.

Behind the main house stands an earlier, two-storey range, now part of Ty Ucha House, with exposed rubble walls and a renewed slate roof, hipped to the southeast, featuring a large central stack. An entrance on the northeast side leads to a boarded door with a bracketed porch canopy, above which is a four-pane overlight. A four-pane sash window sits to the left, with another six-pane sash above. An early 19th-century addition to the left incorporates two further four-pane, Victorian-style sashes within what were formerly cart bays.

Adjoining the main house at right angles to the northeast, and forming Ty Ucha Bach, is a late 18th or 19th-century service wing constructed of similar materials, with a lateral red brick chimney and a brick end chimney to a mono-pitch northeast gable. An inset slate plaque is visible on the upper section of the gable. A modern boarded stable door is centrally positioned, flanked by late 19th/early 20th-century casement windows. Two contemporary four-pane sashes sit under the eaves, with projecting sills. A narrow, mono-pitched link block connects this building to Ty Ucha Cottage with further four-pane sashes on two floors.

Finally, Ty Ucha Cottage, a two-storey addition of rendered rubble with a modern slate roof, adjoins the main house to the northwest, enclosing the forecourt. The cottage’s rectangular six-pane sashes flank a central entrance on each floor, with a modern boarded door under a slated porch canopy. A short section of dressed, coped forecourt wall, featuring a plain square gate pier, adjoins the cottage to the right. The interiors have been modernised.
