Description
Ty Mawr is a tall, storeyed end chimney house built from local limestone rubble, which was previously rendered, and features a renewed slate roof. The chimneys project from the building and have coped gables, with renewed capping to the stacks and simple weathercoursing. The front of the house has three windows and a near-centre entrance that is accessed through a modern porch made of rubble and slate. The entrance includes glazed outer doors and a newly-introduced 9-panel mid-Victorian pine door, with the upper panels being glazed. The windows are slightly recessed 30-pane sash windows that reflect a second-quarter 19th-century style, although they are all modern replacements.
To the right, there is a slightly recessed modern addition that includes a porch similar to the main entrance and a small-pane window above. At the rear, there is another storeyed modern addition with a flat roof and modern windows, along with a small-pane window on the rear of the primary block to the right, which is consistent with the earlier style.
Inside, the former hall to the right of the entrance features heavily-moulded main cross-beams that date from the third-quarter of the 16th century. These beams are supported by stone corbels at the wall and hold up finely stopped-chamfered joists, with a chamfered bressummer above a large gable end fireplace. The former parlour to the left has similar cross-framing, which is interrupted by later partitioning. There is also a further moulded beam in the upper chamber, which was formerly open to the roof. A stopped-chamfered entrance and chamfered ceiling joists indicate a 17th-century alteration. The roof is a three-bay structure with two arched-braced collar trusses decorated with quatrefoil and trefoil motifs; the truss on the right, at the hall end, was originally a partition truss with evidence of a post-and-panel screen below.
