Hafod y calch

Hafod y Calch is a two-storey, three-window farmhouse with a rear wing, built from coursed dressed limestone and topped with a slate roof featuring wide boarded eaves. The main range has stone end stacks on the northern side, with an additional stack at the original end of the wing. Large stone wedge lintels are present over the window and door openings. The front of the house faces east, with a central entrance accessed by stone steps, leading to a panelled door that has a three-pane overlight above it. On either side of the entrance are 12-pane hornless sash windows with small stone sills. The first floor has three similar windows. The southern gable features a small window offset to the left, which lights an attic room. At the rear of the house, where it meets the wing, there is a boarded door with a three-pane overlight. The southern side of the wing has large-pane casement windows with substantial stone lintels on both storeys. The northern side of the rear is made of rubble stone and has catslide lean-tos against both the main range and the wing. The northern end of the former has a window on each storey, including a two-light casement above a shallow three-light casement, and two skylights in the roof pitch. The northern side of the wing features a recessed doorway to the left under a stone lintel, with a small two-light casement window above it. To the right is a wide gable with a nine-pane dormer window and a two-light casement below. There is a small single-unit service range attached to the southern end of the main range, which is rendered and has a slate roof with a brick corner stack.

A two-storey, four-window secondary dwelling has been added to the rear (west) of the wing and faces south. This structure is built from random stone, with a roofline that continues with the wing and a lateral stone stack at the left end of the front. Stone lintels are used over the openings, which include large-pane wooden casement windows. There is a boarded door with a three-pane overlight to the left of centre, a nine-pane window to the left, and a 12-pane window to the right, with no opening on the far right. The upper storey has four nine-pane windows aligned across it. The rear features a catslide lean-to with a three-light casement window to the left and a boarded door to the right of centre, along with a skylight in the roof pitch. The right-hand bay does not have a catslide, but features a nine-pane window on the ground floor and a casement window above, offset to the right.
