Description
Tan-y-Llan is a small, two-unit, one and a half storey cottage. It features an exposed cruck frame in the upper gable wall, with broad blades that have a saddle, spurs to queen-posts above the main tie beam, and a king post above the collar. The front wall is rendered over rubble, and the cottage has graded slate roofs with gable-end stacks, one of which on the upper gable appears to have been added later.
There is a central entrance that leads into an added gabled porch. The flanking windows are two-light casements with single ring cambered heads. The dormers within the roof also contain two-light casements and have bargeboards with pendant finials. A small leaded light window is partly obscured by the chimney on the upper gable end. At the rear, there is a continuous outshut.
Inside, the staircase rises in a straight flight to the rear of the entrance. The ground floor features roughly chamfered lateral beams, and there is an exposed central truss with raking struts and wind-braces on either side.
