Description
Siop Fach, also known as the Second Cottage, is a building made of whitewashed rubble stone and features a slate roof. It has a stone double ridge stack located between the first and second cottages, as well as a stone end stack on the second cottage. The cottages are built down a slope, resulting in the first cottage being two-storey while the second is single-storey, with both roofs and windows aligned with the slope. The first cottage, on the left, has a ground floor door on the left side and one window on each floor to the right. The second cottage is single-storey and double fronted, featuring centrally located boarded doors and small 9-pane windows, with the top three windows tilting. The openings on the left side are heavily stepped, while those on the right are nearly level.
