Description

Ty Ucha Cottage is a three-storey, three-bay house likely dating to the near-symmetrical period, built with roughcast rubble walls on a boulder plinth and featuring a modern slate roof. It has stone-coped gable parapets with curved stone kneelers and plain rendered brick chimneys. The main entrance is near-centre, sheltered by a modern glazed and slated porch. The windows are near-flush, 12-pane sashes, designed to resemble earlier originals. Smaller attic windows are set within gabled dormers that project slightly above the eaves, with plain modern bargeboards. Stuccoed sill courses and window surrounds from around 1900 are present, along with simple, shaped corbels beneath the windows. A lean-to addition to the right side has a similar window and stucco surround.

Adjoining to the rear is the earlier primary house, now Ty Ucha House, a two-storey range with exposed rubble walls and a renewed slate roof, hipped to the southeast, and a large central stack. A renewed porch canopy shelters the entrance on the northeast side, above a boarded door and a four-pane rectangular overlight. A four-pane sash window is on the left, with a six-pane window above, both under the eaves. An early 19th century addition extends to the left with two further four-pane Victorian-style sashes, replacing what were formerly two cart bays.

A late 18th or 19th century service addition, now Ty Ucha Bach, adjoins the main house at a right angle to the northeast, constructed in a similar style with a lateral red brick chimney and a brick end chimney to a mono-pitch northeast gable; the upper section of this gable is also of brick and bears an illegible slate plaque. A modern boarded stable door sits at the central entrance, flanked by 4-pane late 19th/early 20th century casement windows, with exposed timber lintels over the ground-floor openings. Two contemporary four-pane sashes with projecting sills are located under the eaves. A later 19th century mono-pitched link block, also with four-pane sashes to two floors, is situated between Ty Ucha Bach and the main building, creating a narrow connection.

Adjoining to the northwest is Ty Ucha Cottage, a two-storey addition constructed of rendered rubble with a modern slate roof. Rectangular six-pane sashes (replicating earlier originals) flank a central entrance on both floors; those on the first floor are under the eaves, sheltered by a modern boarded door under a slated and bracketed porch canopy. A short section of dressed, coped forecourt wall with a plain square gate pier terminates the addition to the right. The interior was not inspected.
