Description

Glanrhos is a house built from whitewashed rubble stone, featuring a slate close-eaved roof and painted brick end stacks. The building has two storeys and is double fronted, with an offset to the left. Above, there are two small paired casement windows located under the eaves, which have been fitted with renewed slate sills. On either side of a 4-panel door, there are two 4-pane horned sash windows, likely dating from the late 19th century or early 20th century, all of which are adorned with stone voussoirs. The left end wall is made of rubble stone. To the right, there is a single-storey double-fronted cottage or outbuilding that is also whitewashed and has a slate roof. This structure features a 4-pane sash window on the left, a half-glazed door in the centre, and a small casement window on the right. The property was not inspected at the time of the survey.
