Description

Plas yn Roe is an L-plan building, likely from the 17th century, featuring a cross passage design. It has Georgian-style windows and a symmetrical front, with alterations and additions made in the mid-19th century. The building is two stories tall and has a four-window front made of scribed render, with advanced gabled end bays and a plinth. The roof is slate and undulating, with tall rendered chimney stacks, one of which is a stellar type and possibly originally served the hall. The guttering and rainwater heads feature lion heads, and the bargeboards have been renewed, although the pendants and finials have been removed.

The end bays have small pane Venetian sash windows, while the center features 16-pane sashes, all with Tudor labels and nearly flush frames. A central pitched roof porch from a similar period has highly ornate foliage trail bargeboards and a Tudor label over a pointed arch entrance. The porch contains panelled double doors and bracketed cills for the small side openings.

On the right side, the building has a two-window scribed render facade with a broad chimney breast and a modern garage extension. The ground floor features deeply recessed similar windows and modern splayed bays. The rear gable end of the cross range is roughcast, with a dog-legged roof on the inner side. The left gable end is whitewashed brick, featuring a chimney breast and one small pane sash window. Attached to the left end is a two-story, two-window whitewashed brick former bell tower, which may have originally had a pyramidal roof and was said to have been used for calling the staff. It has round arched openings with imposts and giant cills. The rear of the building is also whitewashed brick, with four plus two windows, higher to the left behind the bell tower, featuring a lean-to roof and an attic dormer. Most windows are small pane sashes, with some having cambered heads on the ground floor and one sliding sash window on the return wall of the cross range.

Inside, the drawing room retains window shutters, stop-chamfered beams, and a broad fireplace with a flue leading to the stellar stack. There is a blocked Tudor opening to the passage. The interiors of The Hendre have not been seen.
