Upper Cable House

In a rustic Gothic style, of 2 storeys and attic, the lower storey of rock-faced, snecked Cefn stone and upper storey of timber framing in square panels and white brick nogging. Below the timber framing is a moulded string course. Hipped slate roof rises to a flat apex which has wrought iron brattishing. Two tiers of gabled roof dormers. In the upper storey are diagonal braces in the outer panels forming saltire crosses. On the W, downslope side is a 3-window range with 2-light casements in the upper storey (the rear elevation is similar, with single casements in the side walls). In the lower storey are 2 cross-windows to the front beneath cambered lintels. Below each window, within a shallow projecting plinth, are slots for the cables (bricked up to R). In the L side wall is a boarded door with iron studs and fake ornate strap hinges. At plinth level to the front are 2 bays of coursed stone, continuing as a retaining wall on the L side.
