Description
Pen-y-bryn tea rooms is a Georgian three-storey, two-window house featuring a pebble-dashed front and smooth-rendered rusticated quoins on the right side. It has sill bands on the first and second floors and eared architraves. The roof is covered with slate and has a central brick stack. The entrance is located on the right side, featuring a mid-20th century replacement door beneath an earlier overlight, all framed by an architrave with a simple pediment. The windows on the lower storey are four-pane horned sashes, also topped with simple pediments. The first floor has similar sashes, while the second floor has replacement four-pane windows that include hopper lights, all set in original openings.
At the rear, there is a one-storey flat-roof projection on the right side. On the left side, there is a gabled rubble-stone rear wing with a large external stack.
Inside, the ground floor is divided into two units by back-to-back fireplaces that have been altered. In the rear wing, there is a cross beam with run-out stops. The staircase is located at the end of an entrance corridor, accessed through a wooden arch. It features a dog-leg design, with a closed string on the lower flight and turned balusters with a square newel on the upper flight. Slate steps lead down to a brick vaulted cellar in the main range.
