Description

Dee Bank, located at Pen-y-Bryn, is a 19th-century house constructed with rendered rubble and slate roofs featuring gable end stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a two-unit plan with a central entrance and stair hall, extended by a single bay to the east, and it faces away from the road, with the main elevation oriented to the north.

The principal façade includes a central eight-panelled door with a simple small-paned overlight, flanked by two canted bay windows, each fitted with small-paned sashes and a beaded cornice. These bay windows may have been added in the later 19th century. The upper windows are 16-pane sashes. The eastern extension has a single casement window on each floor, consisting of two lights on the lower level and three lights above.

The rear elevation features a central doorway, with two-light casement windows flanking and above it; the right-hand window has lattice glazing. The house retains its original layout, with two principal rooms on each floor facing north and two small service rooms at the rear, one of which has a secondary staircase likely inserted in the late 19th century. The staircase is adorned with plain spindle balusters, a swept rail, and a moulded newel, and some original cast iron rectangular hob-grate fireplaces are still present.
