Description
Tan Fron is a farmhouse built from whitewashed rubble stone, featuring a close-eaved slate roof and stone stacks at each end. The building is two storeys high and has a double-fronted design that is offset to the right. It includes 4-pane sash windows, with the upper windows having heads positioned under the eaves, while the ground floor windows are slightly larger and all have rough slate sills. The doorway, located to the right of the left end wall, has a plain board door and is accompanied by a corrugated lean-to on the left side. Attached to the right of the house is a two-bay outbuilding range made of rubble stone, which has a partially missing corrugated roof and is slightly lower than the house roof. This outbuilding features a near-full-height barn entrance on the left and a doorway on the right. The property was not inspected at the time of the survey.
