Description

Bodawel and Arwelfa are a symmetrical pair of houses built in local brown shaley stone, dating from the 19th century. They are two-storey structures with a four-window range, featuring roofs made of small slates that match the roof of Lloran House, and a tile ridge. A shared central stone chimney is present. The houses have 16-pane hornless-sash type windows set in exposed frames, with segmental stone arches and concrete sills; the windows on both the ground and upper floors are of the same proportions. The facade's rhythm is broken by a large gap for the fireplace positions. Modern semi-glazed doors are located within lightly constructed open-fronted timber porches.

At the rear, both cottages rise to three storeys, each with a brick-fronted full-width rear gable. There is an additional shared rear chimney situated in the valley between the rear extensions. The rear features 16-pane sash windows similar to those at the front but with taller proportions, along with flanking staircase windows, a basement door, and a basement window.
