Description
Lletty Uchaf is a tall two-storey, two-unit house built against a slope, with a single-storey cowhouse at the lower end. The building is constructed of limewashed rubble and has a thatched roof covered with corrugated iron. The cowhouse features two doors at either end, with the lower doorway now glazed as a window; both doors have shallow arched voussoir heads. The house has two windows on each floor: small four-paned casement windows on the first floor and top-hung casements below, all with shallow arched voussoir heads. The lower windows have concrete sills, while the upper windows retain thin slate sills. There are modern additions at the rear.
The entrance leads directly into the former cowhouse, which has bolted trusses, a woven twig under-thatch, and significant remains of straw thatch. The main doorway to the house is located in the gable end next to the stack, featuring a pegged frame and a boarded door. The internal arrangement of the house has been altered, but it originally had a two-room plan, with traces of a partition alongside the second of two lateral sawn timber beams. There is a large main fireplace with a ladder-type stair beside it. The upper floor consists of two rooms, supported by two bolted collar trusses, with the tie-beams resting on small blocks on the wall plate. The ceiling is limewashed, and rough rafters support substantial remains of the thatched roof, with the under-thatch and bundles of straw clearly visible.
