Description

The courtyard ranges of agricultural buildings at Bryn-y-Neuadd Farm date from the 18th and 19th centuries and represent a substantial group of farm buildings complementing the main house and offices. To the right of the house is a range of cart and implement sheds with a slate roof, dark local rubble construction, and pale freestone dressings. It is a single-storey building comprising seven bays, with the central bay set slightly forward and topped with a pinnacled gable. The other bays are buttressed and feature freestone panels, each with three implied vertical ventilator slits. The front side, facing the courtyard to the north, has square openings with wooden lintels supported by squared stone piers. Two bays at the west end have double wooden doors and a smaller window to the right; a bay at the east end retains a decorative wooden door. Internal features include rubble dividing walls and cobbled or brick floors.

To the west is a single-storey agricultural range, with a further small parallel building at the southeast corner. The building is constructed of dark local rubble with heavy, pale grey hammer-dressed lintels and sills, and a slate roof partially replaced with corrugated sheeting. There is a stone chimney at the ridge. It features small-pane windows and boarded doors; internally, it has a standard 19th-century roof with king post trusses and diagonal struts. At the north end is a large cow house with a rear feeding passage, metal troughs, stall partitions, and a dung channel.

The north range comprises a two-storey feed processing and workshop complex. The central block is slightly higher, with a chimney to the west, and features three bays, although the upper floor is obscured by a bridge to a hammel block. The flanking block to the east has three bays, with a central door (also serving as a loading door above) flanked by square windows. It has heavy lintels and sills. Rear windows on the central block's upper level incorporate ventilation grilles. The end blocks each have two bays. To the west, a single-storey range has roof ventilators.

The west block provides animal accommodation and equipment storage rooms, constructed in a matching style and materials to the east block. Centrally located within the courtyard is the hammel block, featuring a covered range aligned north-south. The building is constructed of local rubble with a pitched slate roof and has four bays on each side, each with a broad opening supported by wooden lintels. Yards are surrounded by rubble walls with heavy copings and some boulders in the foundations. In the south gable end are stairs leading to a first-floor doorway for access to a feed store above. The ground floor has flanking doors leading to the hammel, and a central door leading to a cobbled feeding passage with camber-headed feed hatches featuring wooden flaps on either side. The upper storey connects with the north block via a bridge supported on I-beams.
