Description

Ffynnon Gynhafal is a stone-lined basin measuring approximately 5 meters by 3 meters. It features a low wall on the downstream side and taller walls on the other three sides that support an elliptical brickwork vault. The water in the basin is about 0.2 meters deep. It is uncertain if the water was meant to overflow the low wall; there may be an opening at a lower level, or the water might currently be seeping from cracks.

Access to the water is provided by two short flights of steps leading down into the basin.

Ffynnon Gynhafal receives an average of 940 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 72% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 67% of listed buildings.
