Description

Plas-yn-Morfa is a 2-storey building with rubble elevations and slate roofs, featuring gables at the front and three parallel hipped ranges at the rear. It has wide eaves and two stone chimney stacks positioned on either side of the center. The main elevations, facing southwest and southeast, showcase pointed arched Gothick windows with paler stone voussoirs, although some of the glazing has been altered.

The symmetrical main front consists of three bays, where the windows have been modified to include a frosted glass fanlight and top-opening casements. The windows on either side of the entrance previously had plinth level sills. The central entrance is semicircular arched, adorned with a traceried fanlight and glazed sidelights, featuring six octagonal panels on the door and similar panels beneath the sidelights.

A timber porch enhances the entrance, with cusped main arches and lancet arches forming the balustrade, along with later steps. The left side has three windows, including one on the gable end of the front range, with traceried bargeboards that include finials and pendants. The first floor displays an intersecting tracery fanlight above modern top-hung glazing, with a similar window at the center of the ground floor. To the right, there is a broad Edwardian bay window with plate glass windows and toothed valencing, while a smaller splayed bay to the left features horizontal glazing bars.

A rubble wall extends to enclose the front garden. On the right side, there is a two-storey splayed bay that mirrors the smaller bay on the left, with a panelled band separating the floors. A later cross range is visible, marked by a masonry break, and includes a Victorian gabled porch with bargeboards. The first floor has 16-pane sash windows, with modern glazing below flanking a blocked window.

At the rear, there are two windows and a rubble and hipped roof outhouse that extends towards the stable yard. Inside, the building retains panelled doors, reveals, and shutters, although some alterations have occurred due to its conversion into a nursing home.
