Description

Cynon Cottage is a Victorian building featuring modern alterations. It is a two-storey structure with a shale front and red brick dressings, displaying a slate roof, wide boarded eaves, and a central red brick chimney stack that has pilaster strips and a dentil band. The central bay is advanced and gabled, containing twin entrances with segmental heads, pilasters, and four-panel doors, along with a blind roundel in the attic gable. The plain full-height end pilasters project to the same depth as the central bay. Very shallow splayed bays have been inserted into the recesses created by the pilasters, featuring side-opening casement windows without glazing bars. There is possibly a mid-19th century lean-to on the left end, made with slightly larger bricks and cambered voussoirs above a metal frame small pane casement window. On the right end, there is a modern boarded lean-to with a shale gable end. The left gable end has a pointed doorway with brick voussoirs and a small pane Gothic window beside it, along with a cross range window on the ground floor.
