Description

Fronlas Cowshed Range is a cowshed that stands at right angles to the west of the farmyard, connecting corner to corner with the domestic range. The structure is slightly sloped away from the main range. It features quasi-rubble masonry made of small stones and has a slate roof with a tile ridge.

On the front (east) elevation, there is a boarded door on the left side, and three heck doors are located from the center to the right. Above the central door, there is a catslide dormer with a loft hatch. The rear of the building has one central opening, and there is one window in the gable wall with a loft hatch above it.

The interiors include a cowhouse and a workshop.
