Ty Mawr

Ty Mawr is a 2-storey, 3-window house constructed of painted rubble stone, with earlier render still visible on the right-hand side. The house features a slate roof with 19th-century brick end stacks. The openings have cambered heads with stone voussoirs and are offset to the left of center, though they are not equally spaced. The central 19th-century boarded door includes an inserted glazed panel, while the windows are late 19th-century horned margin-lit sashes. A stone mounting block is located against the right-hand end of the house.

At the rear, there is a lean-to built into the higher ground that incorporates the stair. This lean-to has a central boarded door that opens to the landing, which features a small-pane hopper window under a wooden lintel to the right. The end wall of the lean-to, which is continuous with the right gable end of the house and faces Tan-y-Pound, has a small-pane window under a brick segmental head, with a replaced window above it under a wooden lintel.

The current layout includes a central entrance hall and a dog-leg stair at the rear, which has plain balusters. This arrangement is likely from the 19th century, suggesting that the entrance originally opened into the principal room, indicating that the house should be classified as a late example of a hall house. The original hall, located on the right side, features a large fireplace with a timber lintel and two stop-chamfered cross beams. Additionally, there is an early wooden door frame at the rear of the room, which has been partly infilled to create a window or a bar in the public house.
