Description
No. 3 Glanrafon in Llanwddyn is part of a planned symmetrical terrace that includes four two-storey cottages and attached workshops. These buildings are constructed from uncoursed, slightly rock-faced local slate masonry and feature slate roofs, timber bargeboards, and red brick chimneys. The first and last cottages serve as crosswings for the group, displaying gables at both the front and rear that project slightly. The second and third cottages have lower eaves, with their upper windows at the front and rear designed as through-eaves dormers.
Each cottage features a pair of 12-pane wood casements, which are separated by stone mullions both above and below. The upper windows are not aligned and are slightly smaller than the lower ones. These windows have stone sills and concrete lintels. The front door consists of six panels and is topped with a simple canopy supported by brackets.
The adjacent workshop has a similar design and is L-shaped, with a hip-roofed rear range that has metal-dressed hips. It features a pair of casements at the front that match those of the cottages. On the east elevation, there are double doors on the left, timber boarding above, a small hatch, a heck door, and a small-pane window.
The cottage to the left (west) of the terrace has narrow windows both above and below in its left side elevation.
