Description

The cowshed range at Llwyn-Cadfor is a building constructed of whitewashed rubble, topped with an asbestos corrugated sheet roof. It features a twelve-bay, one and a half storey elevation. The nine bays to the west are symmetrical, with two boarded doors in the center flanked by short loops on each side, and a 20th-century six-pane window between them and in each outer bay. Above the loops, there are four partially blocked upper windows. The three bays to the right are an extension, where a joint is clearly visible. There is a boarded door on the left and a 20th-century six-pane window on the right, along with a first-floor window matching the others. The building has timber lintels. The rear includes a doorway to the right and a lean-to shed to the left. At right angles to the shed is an added whitewashed rubble double pigsty, featuring a corrugated iron roof and forecourt walls with low planked gates and stone lintels above.
