Description

Cwmcoynant Farmhouse is a 1-storey building with semi-attics, constructed of pebbledashed stone and featuring a stone-slate and corrugated iron roof. The windows are fitted with wood or metal casements and sash frames. The west side has an original byre entry with stop-chamfered jambs and a segmental-arched head, along with a stone label. The upper part of the old plank door has been mended. The main entry, originally 5 feet 7 inches wide, is partly blocked and also features a stone label. Above this entry is an old dormer window with a slate roof, and there is a hall window with a stone label, while other windows are modern. The old stone chimneys have been rendered.

On the north side, there is a good original gable window with five lights and square mullions set diagonally, topped with a stone lintel. The east side has a byre entry similar to the west, now with a later plank door, and a small square stair-light with a stone label, along with another window featuring a label. There is a lean-to shed to the south, which is rendered with a corrugated asbestos roof and dates from the 19th century. An addition across the north end consists of stone below concrete blocks and has a corrugated iron roof.

Inside, the original hall features a stone floor and a chamfered ceiling beam, along with a 19th-century plank door. There is a door at the base of the stairs dating from around 1700, made of planks with an arched head. The inner room has been subdivided and contains deep-chamfered joists and a ceiling beam, with a plain plank and muntin partition that is papered over, and an original doorway with a segmental head. The cross-passage has a stone floor, stop-chamfered joists, and a doorframe similar to the previous one. The lower bay features a cobbled floor and plain ceiling timbers. Above, the head of the stairs has a chamfered post and a turned finial from 1700. The roof is largely original, with heavy purlins. The truss between the upper bays includes a tie beam and collar, along with a plank and muntin partition that has a blocked door. There is an original fireplace over the byre, which has an arched wooden head.
