Description

Abercynafon is a farmhouse that features rubble walls which were once lime-rendered and painted, topped with a mostly corrugated roof, although some Welsh slates are visible. The farmhouse has three openings at the first floor level and two covered openings at the ground floor, all framed by timber lintels. These are positioned on either side of a central gabled porch that has stone tiles and large stone quoins.

The attached farm range is constructed from rubble that was previously limewashed, with dressed and tooled stone dressings and a Welsh slate roof. On the left side, there are two wide basket-arched cart shed bays, separated by a column, with two circular pitching eyes above. To the right is the stable, which features a central doorway with a stable door, flanked by metal-framed eight-pane windows with stone sills, although the left side has been altered. All these openings are set under cambered arches, and there is a large rectangular loft opening above.

Inside the farmhouse, the layout originally included a cross passage plan with a rear outshut. It has now been converted into one main room that includes a bricked-in open fireplace on the left, with a staircase beside it. The room features four stop-chamfered cross beams and a small fireplace in the right wall, along with the rear outshut. The roof structure consists of collar and tie beams with three rows of trenched purlins, while the attached range has a roof supported by kingposts and struts.
