Description
Ty'n Rhyl is a building that features a rear wing representing the original part of the structure, although the entire exterior dates from a remodelling carried out by Lockwood. The building has roughcast render over stone and a slate roof with tiled cresting. It is two storeys high and has a three-window range with a central entrance. The doorway is a shallow four-centred arch with a datestone, likely relocated from the original building. There are flat hoodmoulds acting as entablatures above the two-light mullioned and transomed windows on either side. The upper windows have plain stone surrounds and a continuous heavily moulded sill band, and they sit beneath gabled dormers that feature moulded kneelers and finials. The central dormer is dated 1884. A double gabled rear wing was probably added during this remodelling.
The frontage block is an earlier addition to the original house, dating from around 1840. It is constructed of coursed and squared stone with a hipped slate roof and a central axial brick stack. This section is also two storeys high and has a two-window range, with a wide 12-pane sash window to the right, while the left-hand window has been deepened to form French doors. The upper windows are round arched sashes with radial glazing, set beneath segmentally arched leaded dormers.
The two-unit plan of the early building is preserved in the rear wing, featuring chamfered beams in each of the two rooms. The internal fittings are from the 17th century but were likely installed during the 19th century, reportedly by Angharad Lloyd. The larger room is panelled with a mix of 17th-century style panelling, some of which appears to have been adapted from furniture, and includes low reliefs in the window embrasures. The fire surround and overmantle are also said to be adapted from furniture and are highly ornate, featuring balusters on the overmantle and an inlaid stone panel in the centre. There are painted heraldic emblems on the panelling, and the shutters in both rooms are attributed to Angharad Lloyd. Additionally, one plain marble fireplace surround remains in the early 19th-century addition to the house.
