Minafon (Former Pentre Llawen Woollen Factory)

Large 2-storey range with basement to N, alongside river. Lower narrower gabled unit to W end, forming entrance and probably the office. Constructed of rubble stone with quoins under a slate roof with wide yellow brick ridge stack to rear of entrance unit. Symmetrical 2-window gable façade with central entrance; shallow open stone porch with flat stone roof, containing a C20 part-lit panelled door. This is flanked by narrow 4-pane horned sash windows with replaced timber lintels; similar windows aligned above. The openings to the main range are irregularly placed, most containing C20 small-pane top-hung wooden windows. Flanking the entrance unit, the main range has French doors to the R, and a lean-to on the L which could have been associated with a former water-wheel. Above the lean-to is a small-pane window. The S side, facing the road, has a central inset 1st floor loading doorway which contains a boarded door with long timber lintel; small-pane wooden windows beneath and flanking the doorway, the latter immediately under the eaves. The E gable end has irregular windows; 3 to lower storey, that to L top-hung with plain glazing. The 1st floor has small-pane windows to L and centre, the latter larger than elsewhere with a steel lintel. Large circular vent, currently unglazed, to gable apex. Irregular 2-window N elevation, those to ground floor are 2-light plain-glazed casements, probably late C20-early C21. Small-pane window to bottom R, lighting basement.
