Description

Isfryn is a separate dwelling located behind the main house, Tir y Coed. Tir y Coed is a 2-storey, 3-bay house built of rubble stone, featuring larger quoins and a hipped slate roof with brick stacks on the right end and at the rear left of center. The central bay is narrower and advanced, showcasing a fielded-panel door with an overlight and a fluted surround, although part of the surround is missing. Above the door, there is a hornless 16-pane sash window, both openings are set under wooden lintels. The right-hand bay has similar sash windows, with the lower window set under a dressed stone lintel. The left-hand bay is blind, with rooms on this side illuminated by sash windows in the left side wall; the lower storey window here also has a dressed stone lintel. Attached to the right end wall is a single-storey lean-to with a hipped roof, which includes a late 19th-century sash window and a half-lit door to its right, featuring brick jambs. Additionally, to the right of the doorway is another brick monpitched projection and lean-to.
