Plas Gwyn

Plas Gwyn is a detached house built on a rubble stone base and finished with stucco. It features two parallel slate roofs and four large external chimney-breasts made of rubble stone with brick quoins up to mid-height and brick above. The south end wall is slate-hung on either side of the chimney-breasts. The house has two storeys and an attic, along with a basement, and consists of three bays with an additional narrow two-storey section added to the left.

The ground floor is elevated over a full-height basement, accessed by a wide flight of ten sandstone steps from the late 19th century that lead up to a massive slab in front of the front door. These steps rest on a red brick base and are complemented by a cast-iron balustrade, with two painted lions from the 19th century at the base. The doorway features a moulded architrave with a frieze above, framed by large console brackets that support a cornice, and a raised plaque with guttae in the frieze. The entrance has a flush-panelled six-panel door with a three-pane overlight.

The basement is constructed of rubble stone and includes possibly re-used red sandstone quoins and jambs for a six-panel door located to the right of centre. To the right, there is a small-paned iron triple casement, and to the left, two two-light windows with brick sides and a boarded door. The house has three gabled dormers with pilasters, bargeboards, and 9-pane sash windows. The added left bay matches the stucco front and has a basement and one window on each floor, but features a shorter roof and a narrow brick gable to the north, along with a brick rear wall.

The rear east elevation has two gabled dormers, a 16-pane sash window at each end on the first floor, and a 12-pane sash window on the ground floor, with the left one being smaller. There is also a 12-pane stair window at an intermediate level over the door, which has a moulded frame and a fixed window to the left. The left side has a full-height basement. The north end elevation has stucco between the chimney-breasts and is dated 1775.

The interior was not inspected during the re-survey but is reported to have decorative plaster ceilings in two rooms and the hall, as well as an oak staircase with turned balusters and a moulded handrail.
