Felindre Farmhouse

Felindre Farmhouse is a two-and-a-half storey house with a lower stable and cart shed attached to the south end, dating to the 17th century and later. The main house is constructed of rubble stone finished with pebble dash, and has a pantile roof with brick stacks located to the left of centre and to the right, replacing earlier stone stacks. The main doorway, leading to the cross-passage, is situated to the left of centre and features a boarded door sheltered by a 19th-century canopy supported by two moulded stone brackets. To the right of centre is a casement window inserted in the 1950s, followed by an inserted doorway with a boarded door and a canopy on wooden brackets. A horned sash window is located at the right end of the house. Three similar windows are found on the upper storey. The right gable end is notable for a corbelled first-floor stack flanked by four-light attic windows with diamond wooden mullions, originally open but now glazed. An inserted window is positioned to the right of the stack on the first floor. The rear elevation displays a central, two-storey gabled stair projection with inserted windows illuminating the stairwell and a doorway inserted to the left of centre, with a half-lit boarded door. To the left of the stair projection is a six-pane horned sash window, accompanied by a 20th-century pantry window to its left, and an early 19th century eight-pane hornless sash further left. Two 19th-century horned sash windows are found in the upper storey. To the right of the stair projection is a narrow Tudor-headed doorway, likely from the later 17th century, featuring a chamfered surround and a boarded door, alongside a horned sash window, all contained within the original, wider early 17th-century cross-passage doorway. Further to the right is a four-light opening with diamond mullions, and in the upper storey, an enlarged window that is now boarded up.

The stable and cart shed is constructed of rubble stone with traces of limewash, and has a slate roof. A boarded stable door with strap hinges and an opening is situated to the front, and the cart shed doorway, located in the gable end, features a wide segmental arch above a boarded door with a segmental head.

Inside, the narrowing of the original cross-passage doorways is visible. At the lower end of the house, beyond the cross passage, is a dairy with salting slabs. A bread oven is incorporated within the dividing wall of the cross passage, and an original doorway to the hall, previously blocked up, has recently been re-opened. The hall and parlour have modern partitions, but retain cross beams with stepped stops. A boarded door from the hall to the stair has a Tudor head. The house features full-height stone stairs, with the lower treads replaced in concrete. On the first floor, the doorway to the attic stair has a Tudor head and a chamfered surround with broach stops, its boarded door with strap hinges has been altered to fit and was evidently relocated from elsewhere in the house. The stairs to the attic are largely repaired. At the top of the attic stairs are doorways to each end of the house: at the higher end the door frame is chamfered with broach stops, while the lower end doorway possesses a segmental head. The roof structure comprises tenoned collar beams and stop-chamfered principals.
