Description
Aberbran Fach is a farmhouse built from whitewashed rubble stone and features a slate half-hipped roof, tall brick end stacks, and a roughcast ridge stack. The building has two storeys and a long front with 20th-century metal windows that have replaced the original ones, with the openings slightly enlarged. The lower openings have cambered brick heads. The farmhouse consists of four bays, with the right bay spaced much further out. The ground floor includes a door in the first bay with a cambered head and another door with a timber lintel between the second and third bays, along with an additional window to the left of the first bay. Attached at right angles to the left end is a single-storey outbuilding that has a monopitch roof and a high back wall. The open front of the outbuilding is infilled with whitewashed halved logs, featuring an opening to the left and a door to the right. The roof is made of asbestos sheets. The interior has not been inspected.
