Day Centre at Ffald y Brenin Christian Retreat

A single-storey U-shaped building, with slightly battered walls built largely of re-used or found rubble stone, under a slate roof. Openings either rise to eaves level or are under segmental brick heads, although the windows and doors themselves have trapezoidal heads. Facing the main building to the N the splayed, short outer wings are store rooms with full-height doors, of which the L-hand is part framed by an old gate pier. The main range has a window to the R in place of an earlier door and the entrance offset in a recessed porch at the angle with the L-hand wing. This is carried on an irregular timber post and has doors to the 2 main rooms. On the S side the building extends into the adjacent field, on a projecting base with stone revetment. Each face is treated differently but has windows designed to make the most of the vantage point overlooking the Gwaun Valley. The S face has a wide 3-light window below the eaves and round-headed 3-light window below a gable to the R. In the SE wall is a 3-light half-dormer with faceted roof profile, and in the SW wall another wide 3-light window below the eaves and full-height door.

The interior is divided into 2 main rooms, plus the store rooms in the wings. Main rooms have whitened walls and squared roof beams.
