Description
Dolydd is a range of buildings that includes a house, stores, and a shop, with the western end house possibly predating the main section. The structure is built from rubble stone with yellow brick dressings and has slate roofs. It stands two storeys high and consists of 17 bays. The eaves feature paired brackets, and the roof is hipped at the angles. A raised coped gable indicates the original eastern end of the building, which was later extended by a woollen mill addition.
From the eastern side, the range starts with a single window end-wall of the west-facing house, followed by a three-window house with end stacks. This house has sash windows set in cambered yellow-brick frames and a central arched doorway with a fanlight. Next is a three-window former shop that features similar 12-pane sashes above, flanked by large four-light shop windows on either side of a camber-headed door with an overlight. The shop windows have transoms and arched heads.
Adjacent to the shop door are closely spaced 12-pane sashes, with the right window being a later insertion. There is a loading door above which is a gablet, leading to a three-bay warehouse range that has paired casements above and broad doors below, all with cambered heads. To the left, there is a former Post Office entry with a half-glazed door and a shop window within the original arch. To the right of the right doorway is a low arched entry, said to be where the leat powering the turbine passes through. The original end wall features yellow brick quoins, and the mill addition, built in a matching style, has five bays with loading doors on each floor to the left, and four pairs of casements above a ground floor window, along with an altered wide doorway and an original cambered-headed broad doorway.
The house at the western end (Dolydd) has a front with a four-bay ground floor, featuring 12-pane sashes and a door with an overlight in the third bay. The first floor has similar sashes above the left window and door. The window heads are made of cut stone, which differs from the yellow brick used elsewhere. The north end has a stack, and the eaves have paired brackets. Notably, the first and fourth windows on the ground floor were once doors.
