Description

Lygan y Llan Farmhouse is a 2-storey, L-shaped house built from rubble stone with larger quoins and a slate roof. The roof is hipped between the main range and the rear wing, and there are stone stacks to the right of the center and at the left end of the main range, along with an external gable stack on the rear wing. The openings are set under lintels with hood moulds. The main range, which has three bays and faces southwest, features a central half-glazed door and horizontal-sliding sash windows. The shorter wing also has three bays with similar windows, although the lower center window has been replaced. Below the main range, there are two arched cellar openings. The rear wing includes a low added lean-to garage against the gable end.

The front of the farmhouse is set back behind a dwarf forecourt wall with freestone coping and iron railings. Attached to the left side of the front is a wall with two boarded doors, while a lower yard wall is connected to the right side of the house; both are made of rubble stone with freestone copings. The rear of the main range features openings with stone segmental heads, including two horizontal sashes in the upper storey, a larger replaced casement in the original opening on the lower right, and the original entrance within an added flat-roofed extension. The wing has an inserted rear window in the lower storey. The property has not been inspected.
