Description
Hendre Eynon is a two-storey, L-plan house with whitewashed render over rubble stone and slate roofs, featuring terracotta ridges and yellow brick stacks. It dates back to the 18th century and is one of only two surviving houses, alongside Rhosson, from a group of eight noted by Romilly Allen in 1902 for their large external chimneys with conical stacks. Originally, the house was a single storey with a loft, accessed by a door located beside the stack under a lean-to porch, which was part of a series of lateral outshuts.
Very little of the original exterior remains from the 1902 photograph, except for the large chimney breast on the north front, which has a rendered conical stack now capped in yellow brick. The lean-to porch to the right is in the original position of the outshut porch, with an additional projecting lean-to also in its original location. The first floor features two 20th-century sash windows, while the yellow brick west stack and ridge stack to the left of the conical stack are present. The first floor has two evenly spaced sashes, with a ground floor bay window to the left and two sashes to the right. The east end has a yellow brick stack, and all early 20th-century sashes have been replaced with late 20th-century plate glass windows in plastic-coated frames.
The south front of the main range appears to be entirely early 20th century, with one plate-glass sash above and three smaller sashes below. The southeast rear wing is constructed of whitewashed rubble stone and has a rendered south stack, two upper windows, and a ground floor lean-to in the angle with a window to the right. The south end features a large lean-to.
Inside, one significant room from the early house remains, although it has an early 20th-century ceiling. The entrance passage is located beside a massive inglenook fireplace with a stone segmental arch, and there are two niches to the right of the fireplace. Against the wall on the west side of the entrance passage is a long bench made of rubble stone with a slate top.
