Description
The Trefnant Inn is an L-shaped complex of buildings dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The main section, facing east, was built in the later 19th century and has three bays. It is constructed from squared limestone blocks with a slate roof and plain end chimneys. The symmetrical front has a central entrance with a wooden doorcase and a reused early 19th-century six-panel door, featuring octagonal upper panels, and a segmental fanlight above. There are recessed twelve-pane sash windows with projecting slate sills and modern shutters on the ground floor, and similar nine-pane windows on the first floor.
A southwest-facing section, which is older, adjoins the main section at a right angle. Its northeast gable projects, and it features a modern window where an entrance once stood on the ground floor. This section is three bays wide, two stories high, and has a raised ground floor above a basement. A blocked entrance with limestone voussoirs and a cambered head is centrally located, and above it is a slate date plaque with the initials "ME LL" and the date 1806. Four-pane sash windows from the later 19th century are set into original brick-cambered openings, flanked on the left by a modern basement window. An eight-pane sash window from the 19th century is situated under the eaves on the right, with another modern window to the left. A further sash window is located at the rear of the main section, accompanied by a continuously-roofed brick outshut on the left, and a single-storey brick extension with a catslide roof and a tall brick chimney extends from the rear of the primary block.
Adjoining the main building is a stable and agricultural range built in two phases, the later 19th century infill section being shorter, and the longer, stepped-up section being original. The earlier section has an external stone-stepped access to a blocked upper catslide dormer entrance and a blocked ground-floor opening. The main section of the stable range has three segmentally-headed entrances with limestone voussoirs and pegged-frame boarded doors. Between the last two entrances is a former entrance, now reduced to form a boarded window. There are two tiers of ventilation slits. A blocked opening with a timber lintel is present at the rear of this range on the left, along with further ventilation slits and a large modern boarded entrance on the right.
The interiors have been modernized and are plain.
