Description

The stable and cow house at Careg-yn-fol is a 19th-century building that consists of an original range positioned at a splayed angle to the house, made of rubble stone with a slate roof. This is complemented by a lower byre and stable range that is nearly at right angles to it, also constructed of rubble with some blue brick dressings and a slate roof.

The original range features a wide doorway on the left side leading to the stable, and to the left of center and at the right end, there are byre doorways under wooden lintels with stable doors, along with a small window in between. The loft has boarded openings at the center and left. At the rear, there is a lower projection on the right side, which has blue-brick dressings and a hipped slate roof. The end wall includes an iron-framed window at the lower left and a boarded loft opening. The left (east) side wall has a doorway on the right and a window on the left. The rear of the original range contains three ventilation strips for the loft and a part-vented window at the lower left, which was likely originally a manure-pitching hole. The right gable end is weatherboarded and is attached to the lower added range.

Facing the yard, the building has a boarded door at the left end, a stable door leading to a through-passage, followed by three alternating windows and doors. The two end doors and windows have been enlarged and feature blue-brick surrounds. At the rear, a round arch leads to the through passage.

Inside, late 19th-century wooden stalls remain in both ranges, along with a cobbled floor and a passage leading to the later byre range. This later range includes tie beams with raking struts.
