Description
Ty Brith is a house dating from the 17th century, although it has undergone significant alterations. The exterior is whitewashed render with a slate roof that has a close eave. The front of the house has two storeys and originally had two windows; these have been replaced with 20th-century windows. The ground floor appears longer than the first. A large rubble stone raking buttress sits between the windows. There is no front door. The right-hand end wall features a 20th-century external stack and preserves two 17th-century stone mullioned windows with two lights to each floor. The ground floor window has a transom and top lights. The mullions on both windows are recessed and ovolo-moulded, with drip stones. A recessed, chamfered window is visible in the left-hand end gable, above a single-storey addition with a stone end stack.
A large, L-plan range dating from the 20th century extends to the rear of the right side of the house, with some sections having flat roofs.
One principal room of the original house remains. Within this room is a particularly fine 16th-century moulded fireplace beam featuring ogee mouldings. A chamfered main beam is present at the other end, as are the remains of a partition with two doorways, one of which is now blocked. The doorways have flattened arched heads; the open doorway provides access to a narrow room at the front of the house. A staircase is situated in a bay to the right of the doorway, pressed against the wall. The foot of one of the two full cruck roof trusses is visible here.
