Description
The outbuildings at Pen-y-Fron Farm are 19th-century structures made of rubble and whitewashed, topped with slate roofs. Located to the left of the current farmhouse and aligned east-west, the range includes part of an older house on the right. It is a single-storey building featuring a square stone chimney on the right. The entrance door is flanked by a window on each side, with the left window being slightly longer. The slate roof is covered with many small, thick slates. As the ground slopes down to the left, the range extends into a barn that has a larger door and modern annexes made of corrugated iron and brick, along with a slit vent in the west gable.
Perpendicular to this range is another structure aligned north-south, set back from the barn gable. This range consists of a lofted stable on the right and a granary-cartshed on the left. Each loft has a window positioned at the eaves. The stable features a door on the right, while the cartshed has a broader door on the left, with two square-headed windows situated between them.
Inside the old house, there is a large stepped chimney breast and fireplace. To the right, a blocked doorway suggests that the building originally extended further west, as indicated on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey map surveyed in 1875.
