Description

Tyle Clydach is a small former farmhouse, featuring a central entrance that leads to two rooms on the ground floor, with a rear outshut and lean-tos on both sides. The building is constructed of partly limewashed stone rubble and has a steeply pitched Welsh slate roof, which includes small slate-hung dormers and end stacks with narrow cornices. It is a single storey with an attic.

The entrance is located on the left side, featuring a doorway with a hood. To the right of the doorway is a small window with a timber lintel, and to the left is a larger nine-pane hopper window with a segmental arched head. The attic storey has been remodelled to create a rear landing for the rooms, with small hopper windows and embrasures positioned just above the eaves level. A rubble wall forms a front courtyard, although concrete now covers the original cobbles.

Inside, the space is divided into two main rooms, with two early 19th-century doors in a lath and plaster partition on the right, indicating that this area was previously subdivided. The room on the left contains blocked stairs to the left of a blocked fireplace, which has been replaced by a staircase bay on the right.
