Description
Troedrhiwsebon is a farmhouse and outbuilding that share a single roof. The structure is made of whitewashed rubble stone and features a slate roof with a stone chimney positioned between the two sections. The house, located to the west, is double fronted and consists of two storeys. It has two very narrow 2-pane windows located under the eaves, above which are two 12-pane sash windows. The central entrance has a door with an overlight, a slate doorstep slab, and a step, featuring a 20th-century door. There are also two roof lights.
The attached outbuilding does not have a building joint and has a broad entry that is topped by a long rough timber lintel, with 20th-century double doors. A small 20th-century window has been inserted above the right end of the lintel.
To the right, there is a stable that includes a single window and a single door, both featuring stone voussoirs. The window is a 2-light shuttered design with a thin slate sill, while the door is a 20th-century door. The east end wall has whitewashed stone outside steps leading to a loft door, also with stone voussoirs. A letterbox is set into the steps.
