Ty-newydd

The house consists of a main range and a crosswing, standing on a platform site on land falling sharply to the front (south) and left. Where the ground is low the house stands on a stone podium. The main range is now entirely in brickwork, painted white and, at front only, in imitation of timber framing in black and white. The crosswing at left has retained its timber framing apart from its west side wall, which is also now replaced in brickwork and painted in imitation of black and white timber framing. The front (south) gable wall of the crosswing is particularly fine, in framing two panels high per storey and with a gable three panels high; braces to the tie beam and decorative herringbone bracing in the lowest panels of the gable. The rear gable wall is similar but undecorated apart from V struts at the apex. Slate roofs, that of the crosswing a little higher than the main range; two large ribbed stacks in grey stone, linked at the caps.

An unusual feature is the recess in the rear side against the central chimney, across which the roof is carried without interruption. Within the recess is the rounded external projection, in stone with slate roof, of a very large bread oven.

A small porch has been formed at the front in the angle, with brick steps.

Timber windows of casement type within the timber framing, respecting the panels of the framing.

The plan is of lobby-entrance type with a large central chimney, incorporating a large fireplace on the east side (to the main range) and a smaller fireplace to the west side (to the crosswing). Large bread oven in the right side of the larger fireplace (with considerable exterior projection). The parlour (main room of the crosswing) is said to have two main beams with ovolo-enriched stops and arched doorways to the rooms at rear, and the roof is said to have windbraces.
