Description

Hendre-glyn is a house built of sandstone rubble, which has been completely painted over, with natural slate roofs. It features a single depth cross-passage plan and is a single storey with an attic.

The yard elevation consists of three visual bays that only roughly correspond with the house's layout. The left end is covered by a projecting wing that has a door in the gable end and three modern windows on the long wall. The central bay is entirely covered by a very shallow modern extension, which includes two windows and the front door to the right. The right bay has a modern top opening light under an oak lintel. The steeply pitched roof has three small gabled dormers, likely from the 20th century, with top opening lights, and there are two stone stacks, one in the centre backing onto the cross-passage.

The rear elevation features a blind wall on the left, followed by a 2-light casement window under a timber lintel fitted into the cross-passage doorway, a tiny window, and a modern wide patio door along with another casement window. A rooflight is positioned above the door.

Inside, the cross-passage is accessed through the old doorway located within the modern extension. It has plastered walls and a window in the end wall. To the left is the original front doorway framed in chamfered ashlar (Fox and Raglan), which is now plastered over. The living room contains four deep crossbeams with chamfers and bar and run-out stops (Wern-hir). The far wall retains a fine oak post-and-panel screen, which includes a doorway with a 4-centred head, although the door has been replaced. There is a stone spiral firestair that forks at the top, leading to a small study in the inner room. The added parlour features a ceiling with 4 x 3 compartments that are stopped and chamfered in each direction, along with a partly reconstructed stone fireplace with chamfered jambs. The upper floor displays cruck/principals of different types over the two parts of the house, with the later ones made of lighter scantling, and there is an oak doorframe with a plank door at the stair head.
