Description

Llyshendy is a house constructed from rubble stone, topped with a roof of clay plain tiles featuring swept eaves and red brick end stacks. It is one and a half storeys tall and has a three-window range of cast-iron casement pairs. These windows are intricately patterned with elongated hexagon panes and small diagonally-set square panes in between, which have cusping designed as quatrefoils. The windows are adorned with thin stone voussoirs, brick hoodmoulds, and stone sills. The lower two windows are longer, while the upper three extend through the eaves under stone gables that have blank recessed shield plaques and bargeboards with decorative timber finials.

The central doorway is Tudor-arched, featuring a plain overlight and a plank door with iron strap hinges. An open timber porch with a similarly tiled roof, which is outswept at the eaves, is supported by chamfered posts and has bracing to the collar truss with wishbone struts above. The east end wall reveals traces of an earlier house that was built out to the rear and subsequently raised. The rear of the house is roughcast and includes four pairs of plain iron lattice casements on the first floor, a similar triple casement on the ground floor to the left, followed by a door and another similar casement pair. There is a 20th-century window in the fourth bay. The west end wall features a recessed cross in the gable and two pairs of first-floor casements with triangular heads, along with a similar French window on the ground floor in a 20th-century conservatory.

The interior has a central passage plan with a later 19th-century staircase.
