Description

This is a barn and attached outbuildings located to the north of Cefn Trenfa, built from whitewashed rubble stone and featuring slate roofs, arranged in an L-shape. The east-facing barn includes a cambered arched cart entry and a full-height barn door. There is a loft door on the end wall, accessed by stone steps, and the roof is hipped at the northwest angle.

To the south, there are two ranges that step downhill. The upper stable range has two loft lights positioned under the eaves and two stable doors, which are flanked by semi-circular openings, with a fifth central semi-circular opening in between. The stone voussoirs are a notable feature. The lower range contains two loft lights on the left and center, two doors on the ground floor to the left with a small window adjacent to the left, a window on the right, and two arched cart entries to the right, with a circular pitching-eye above. Stone voussoirs are also present in this section.

The interiors have not been inspected.
