Description
Bronfre-Uchaf is a building constructed from colourwashed rubble, featuring a slate roof with timber eaves and slated barges. It has rubble gable chimney stacks, which are thicker on the right side and have stepped stone tabling, as well as a chimney on the rear wall near the center. The building has a long front that consists of five bays, which is offset to the left.
On the upper floor, there are four 6/3 hornless sash windows that are grouped away from the center, each with cambered brick heads and slate sills. The ground floor has three windows to the left of the door and one to the right, with all openings except the center one corresponding to those above. The windows are twelve-pane hornless sashes, except for the left window, which has 16 panes. The heads and sills match those above. The front door is a 20th-century boarded door with a low overlight and a brick head. The right end features a planked door with a stone lintel, and there is a six-pane attic window. The left end has a boarded door with a stone lintel and an attic window with a boarded shutter. A rubble forecourt wall includes a decorative late 19th-century cast iron gate towards the right end.
The building has an unusual long plan, shaped by the steep slope behind it. The ground floor consists of a three-room layout with chimney entries at both ends and a front-door passage, which may have been added later. The right-hand room contains a massive fireplace with a stop-chamfered timber bressumer and a rear bread oven with a cast iron door. The floor is made of slate flags, and there is a roughly chamfered beam with rough sawn joists. A simple late 19th-century dog-leg stair leads to the upper floor. The central room has two beams and joists similar to those in the right-hand room. The ground floor features good 6-panel doors with raised and fielded panels.
