Plas-yr-esgob (The Bishop's Manor House)

Plas-yr-esgob, also known as The Bishop's Manor House, is a two-storey farmhouse dating from the 18th century. The front range of the house faces north and is built from small handmade bricks on a rubble stone plinth, while the rear wing is constructed from local slatey stone, mostly rebuilt later in hammer-dressed local limestone. Both sections feature slate roofs with tile ridges and brick end-chimneys. The front range has stone quoins and a stone cornice, along with two small modern rooflights—one on the rear of the front range and one on the west side of the rear wing.

The front of the house is a symmetrical three-window range, with the fenestration slightly offset to the left to accommodate the kitchen chimney on the right. There are two small windows in the west gable elevation. The front windows have arched brick heads, while the two similar windows at the rear have plain brickwork heads, along with two higher windows that light the staircase. The east elevation of the rear wing features two windows above and two below, plus one door, all with brick segmental arches and two-course brick sills.

To the east of the house, at cellar level, are remnants of a horse-gin, likely used for working a churn in the cellar. The farmhouse was under renovation at the time of inspection, with much of the original joinery removed for conservation.

Inside, the kitchen is located to the right and the living room to the left, with stairs centrally at the rear leading down to the cellar. The rear wing can be accessed from the right-hand unit on each floor. The floors are laid with slate flagstones, including in the cellar.

The kitchen fireplace features an oak bressummer and a small alcove to the right. The ceiling beams in the sitting room and the room above have unusual double-stopped chamfers. The oak staircase has double-sized newels, with half-balusters carved on their faces. The living room includes panelled cupboards, while the cellar has slate settles on brick piers. A cruck frame in the rear wing, mostly concealed, appears to have an apex matching Alcock's type E.
