Lower Garth (also known as Garth Isaf)

Lower Garth, also known as Garth Isaf, is a Grade II* listed building that features a timber frame and a random slate roof from Llangynog. It stands two storeys high with attics and likely originated as a four-bay structure with a Type C lobby entry plan. The fourth bay is a narrow framed cross wing at the southern end, which may have originally served as a porch. A two-room cross wing was added to the northern end in the mid-18th century, probably by the Tudor family, and the building was widened to create a circulation corridor.

The exterior showcases small square panel framing, with some plaster infilling and a decorated margin surviving at the rear, while the southern wing features close studding with a middle rail. The building has three gables: one at the northern end, one over the central porch, and one over the southern bay, with the northern addition providing a half-hipped element. At the rear, there is a central gabled wing and a large 19th-century lean-to at the southern end. The northern wing has 12-paned sash windows with heavy glazing bars.

Inside, the main living room at the southern end boasts 17th and 18th-century panelling, highlighted by a fine Jacobean overmantle above the fireplace located in the corner of the rear wall. The fireplace at the opposite end of the same room is adorned with 18th-century English delft tiles. An early 18th-century staircase made of mahogany or walnut features a deep wreathed handrail and moulded stick balusters set diagonally. The roof consists of four bays with collars and a double tier of purlins. The Georgian wing includes corner fireplaces and reeded ceiling beams, also featuring a double purlin roof.

At the time of inspection in November 1994, the building was undergoing restoration.
