Description
Gelli Gason is a late 17th century timber-framed farmhouse that has undergone extensive alterations to create attic rooms in the late 18th or early 19th century. The building consists of three bays and features a box frame with a central chimney stack located at the back of a passage. Originally, it was two storeys high with cellars, displaying six square panels to the wallplate. The roof has been raised by two shallow panels to accommodate a new wallplate height, and there are three dormer windows above. The infill panels are rendered, likely over brick nogging. The west gable was reconstructed with brickwork during 19th century alterations, while the east gable is rendered overall. The roof is covered with slate.
At the west end, there is a rectangular two-storey rear wing made of whitened rendered masonry, likely built as a later service wing, now topped with a corrugated iron roof. The south entrance features a modern four-panel half-glazed door. The windows are 19th century casements, with the attic and first floor having six lights each, and the ground floor having nine lights. There are also two modern windows at the west end of the south elevation.
The interior was not accessible at the time of inspection. Gelli Gason is listed as a notable example of high-quality timber-framed construction, with its alterations reflecting social and domestic development.
