Eglwys Cross Cottage

The main house is 2-storeyed, timber-framed under a slate roof with brick stack to the L. Windows are all insertions or replacements in earlier openings. On its W side it has a 2-light window to the L and pair of windows R of centre. The upper storey has low 3-light and 2-light windows beneath the eaves. The L gable end is almost entirely of renewed framing, except for a tie beam. The rear has two 2-light windows and a 2-light raked dormer on the L side. The back of the brick extension has a doorway boarded up, and in its gable end are casement windows in each storey.

The entrance is within the lower 2-storey 2-window extension set back to the R in the W elevation. This extension is of hand-moulded bricks under a slate roof with brick end stack. The entrance, at the L end adjoining the earlier part of the house, has a replacement boarded door, and windows are 2-light casements in earlier openings, larger and under segmental heads in the lower storey.

The older part of the house has a 2-unit plan with central timber-framed partition, incorporating a tie beam with raking struts. Purlins have diagonal braces. In the lower room is a chamfered cross beam and part of the original gable end remains visible. In the upper room is a large fireplace with chamfered lintel, probably reconstructed.
