Description
Careg-yn-fol Farmhouse is a two-storey, three-window house, likely dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of rubble stone with a slate roof and end stacks made of stone, one on the right and one on the left. Openings are framed with segmental stone heads. The windows are two-light casement windows, and the central doorway has a boarded door with glazed panels inserted later. A small upper-storey window is located in the left-hand gable end. The rear elevation features similar upper-storey windows, a lower-left casement window within a brick surround, and a single-storey projection on the right side, added in the late 19th century. The building has group value. Not inspected.
