2 Pont-y-bryn-hurt

2 Pont-y-bryn-hurt is a pair of Gothic style estate cottages built in the 19th century, featuring two storeys. The cottages are constructed from snecked, rock-faced sandstone with limestone dressings. They have a half-hipped roof covered in patterned tiles, with overhanging eaves, four gabled roof dormers that include trefoil openings and louvres, a central ridge stack (partially renewed in brick), and stepped stone stacks on both the right and left sides.

The front of the cottages showcases paired cross-gables that project forward in the center. These gables contain 3-light mullioned windows with blind trefoil-headed lights on the lower storey and paired lancet windows with hood moulds on the upper storey. Narrow louvered openings are present in the gables. A deep moulded plat band runs along the left side of the cross gables, above a lean-to canopy supported by timber posts. Under this canopy, there is a doorway on the right featuring a lancet head, a boarded door, and a 2-pane overlight. Above this doorway, in the upper storey, is a 3-light mullioned window with cusped heads. To the right of the cross gables, there is a boarded door with a 2-pane overlight to the left, topped by a 2-centre head with a hood mould. Above this doorway is a 2-light mullioned window. Additionally, to the right of the doorway, there is a canted bay window with a central detached red sandstone shaft that has a moulded capital, along with sash windows.

The right end wall features a shallow one-storey projection with weathered coping and a 2-light window in the upper storey. The left end wall has a canted bay window similar to the front and a 2-light mullioned window above it.

On the rear elevation, there are paired gablets in the center, each with 2-light mullioned windows on the first floor, offset to the center, along with a door and window on the lower storey. Flanking the gablets are lower advanced cross gables that have one-light upper storey windows and one-light windows in the side walls of the lower storey. Low walls extend from the outer angles of the cross gables, defining a yard that is backed by sheds faced in brick, which are built as lean-tos against a rubble stone outer wall that has narrow breathers in dressed surrounds. The property was not inspected at the time of the survey in August 1997.
