Maes-y-Bidiau

A 1½-storey house of whitened rubble stone, steep slate roof, C17 square stone stack to the L and smaller stack to the R. A central C19 boarded door is under a wooden lintel and an overlight beneath the eaves. It is flanked by inserted windows. The R gable end has an added small lean-to and an inserted attic window upper L in the gable. The lower rubble-stone single-storey former byre, to the L of the original house, has a C20 boarded door to the R replaced in an original opening (and comprising the original entrance to the longhouse), then 2 inserted windows and a window to the L in place of an earlier but not original byre door. A garage has been added in-line at the end of the former byre. The rear of the former byre has an outshut, formerly a dairy, with replaced window to the L and skylights. The rear of the main house also has skylights. It has a C19 stair window beneath the eaves centre-L, to the R of which is an inserted window under an added roof dormer, and to the L of which is a shallow outshut under a catslide roof, with enlarged window.

Three pairs of scarfed crucks are retained and are the earliest surviving features. The present interior plan is C19, however. The entrance opens into a small stair hall with dog-leg stair. The floor is laid with C19 quarry tiles. The original hall, to the L, retains a fireplace with large timber lintel. To its L is a wood-framed doorway forming the original entrance to the domestic accommodation.
