Description
Y Rheithordy is a square late Georgian house, built in the 18th century, featuring two storeys and attics. The structure is made of large blocks of coursed rubble stone and is topped with a shallow hipped slate roof. It has a renewed blue-brick ridge stack, with another likely missing, and wide boarded eaves. The main elevations include the entrance front facing west and the garden front facing north, both adorned with a moulded stone eaves cornice. The windows are horned sashes, primarily located under slate lintels.
The entrance front has an added round-headed porch with lattice-work sides, which contains double wooden panelled doors topped with a fan-light featuring iron radial glazing bars. To the left of the porch is a replacement 16-pane window, while above the porch on the upper storey is a 12-pane window under a slate lintel. The right side of the porch features a set-back elevation that is part of the earlier southern section of the house, lacking an eaves cornice, and includes a 12-pane sash window on the lower left and two similar windows on the upper storey.
The garden front to the north has two windows and features added bay windows on the lower storey, which are pebble-dashed and topped with hipped swept roofs. These bay windows have tripartite small-pane sashes. The upper storey consists of 6-pane windows under polished slate lintels. The earlier southern elevation is constructed of random rubble stone and has a tall blocked window to the left of centre, which is set under a depressed arch made of slate voussoirs. There are twelve-pane sashes to the left and right that do not align with the upper storey windows, as well as a blocked doorway on the far right. The first floor and attic have two windows with 12-pane sashes, with those in the attic situated under gabled half dormers.
The eastern side of the house is pebble-dashed and features a large outshut on the left side, which incorporates an earlier single-storey range. In the centre is a mid-20th century flat-roofed porch with a part-lit boarded door, which serves as the entrance to the upper apartment, and above it is a small-pane stair-light. The outshut includes sash windows and 20th-century top-hung windows, while the earlier range has a doorway on the south gable end, with the infill to its left featuring late 20th-century French doors.
Inside, the entrance hall leads to the principal rooms on the left side, which have panelled window reveals, although other interior details have been altered.
