Description
Plas Bron Meurig is a house dating back to the 18th century, with later 19th-century additions. It is constructed of coursed rubble stone with slate roofs. The main north-south range is taller and consists of five bays, originally three, later extended by two bays to the north. This part has a hipped roof, deep eaves, and a short rendered ridge stack towards the north end of the original gable. A lower, gable-ended southwest wing has whitewashed rendered end stack.
The main range features paired brackets to the eaves at both the north and the short two-bay south end, where the main entrance is located. The east front has plain, flat eaves and twelve-pane hornless sash windows with slate sills, sandstone voussoirs to the earlier bays, and squared rubble stone to the later bays. A basement light is positioned under the left window, also with stone voussoirs; a stone ramp leads down to the basement entrance, which has a stone voussoir above a boarded door. The north end wall is of rubble stone and has a twelve-pane horned sash to the ground floor right. The south end has a sash to the first floor, a blank panel to the right, and a hipped-roofed range of later 19th-century design. A narrow, full-length ten-pane horned sash is to the left of the narrow door, while the centre and right have a very broad, full-length tripartite hornless sash of fifteen, twenty-five, and fifteen panes. The east return features a similar fifteen-pane sash with horns, and the west return has a similar ten-pane sash. A board door is present.
The rear wall is painted roughcast and contains twelve-pane horned sashes on each floor to the left, and a narrow eight-pane horned sash stair light to the centre. The southwest wing is of rubble stone, with a pair of late 19th-century plate-glass sashes over a canted bay incorporating a hipped slate roof and a coursed stone base with two, four, two, and four-pane sashes. It also features flat eaves. A gable end wall has a first-floor horizontally sliding casement to the left, and the gabled rear has one window each floor to the left of centre: a horizontally-sliding casement above and a renewed nine-pane window below, both with stone voussoirs. A long, narrow outshut projects beyond the rear of the gable and is located between the southwest wing and the rear of the main range; it has one renewed window.
The southwest wing contains an inglenook, a slate-flagged floor, and a square oak beam running north-south. Throughout the main portion of the house, there are six-panelled doors and internal shutters to the windows. The interior features two marble fireplaces, one with ornamental wooden surrounds, and two former kitchens with meat hooks, wooden spit racks, and built-in dressers. Some rooms have a dentilated cornice, and the hall has an elliptical arch resting on pilasters. The main entrance door, located at the south of the hall, is a six-panelled door with an overlight including radiating tracery. There are two mahogany dogleg staircases with stick balusters. The three-roomed cellar has oak beams and joists, board doors, slate steps, and flags.
