Description

The cowhouse at Cadwgan Farm is a small combined cowhouse and stable built from rubblestone with a roof made of corrugated asbestos sheeting. The structure features two doors with timber lintels at the lower end and a small window. At the higher end, there are two doorways and two triangular vents in the bottom gable that may indicate a possible hayloft. The building is situated on an artificial platform supported by a stone retaining wall and is fronted by a well-preserved yard paved with pitched stone. The interior was not available for inspection during the resurvey in May 1997.
