Description

Ty Capel is a house constructed of rubble stone, featuring a slate close-eaved roof. It has a stone stack on the left with dripstones and a late 19th-century yellow brick stack on the right, which is shared with the vestry. The building is two-storey with a three-window front, showcasing 12-pane horned sash windows and a central door. All windows have slate sills and stone voussoirs above the openings. The end wall is windowless and has plain bargeboards. At the rear, there is an outshut that includes a window and a door to the left, and another window to the right, all of which also have stone voussoirs.
