Tyddyn Hen, Plas y Wern

Much altered in conversion to house, formerly whitewashed rubble stone with thatched roof, now exposed rubble with slate eaves roof and stone small N end stack. Walls are battered at base. One-storey, centre door and window (in former door) to right, originally with separate timber lintels, now under one long rough log, possibly applied. C20 addition at NW angle, and rear wall has two C20 triple casements with rough log lintels, originally it was windowless.

To right of door is cruck truss with one full-length blade on entrance side and one raised blade in rear wall, set into stonework some 0.5 m below wall-head. Blades have chamfered edges. Two other trusses in 1987, lightweight with nailed or bolted thin ties and pegged collars. Double purlins. Previously there were cobbled floors. No evidence found of original chimney, but cruck-truss and purlins were smoke-blackened.
