Description

Tredegar Fawr is a gentry house built from rubble stone, partly roughcast and colourwashed, featuring slate eaves roofs and stone chimneys. The building is designed in an H-plan, with formal south and north fronts flanked by two added crosswings, each equipped with end stacks, while the oldest spine range has a ridge square stack towards the north end.

The south crosswing presents a formal two-storey, three-bay front that is colourwashed and rendered, showcasing horned sash windows and a central door. The first-floor sashes have marginal bars, with plate glass below, and there is a half-glazed door with an overlight. A 20th-century porch features two reused cast-iron columns and a flat hood with dentils. The left end wall is made of rubble stone and includes two small attic sashes, while the right end wall is roughcast with two inserted small first-floor sashes. The roof extends over a rear outshut, which has a half-glazed door and a small-paned window above.

The spine range has a west front of rubble stone with 20th-century five-light timber mullion windows on each floor, set under timber lintels. There is a lean-to porch to the right, at the angle to the south crosswing, with a brick-arched north doorway. The north crosswing features a brick head on the south side, adjacent to the spine range, and has a rubble stone west end wall with stone outside steps leading to a half-glazed loft door on the right. The north front has three bays of roughcast, with small-paned casement pairs under the eaves above and small 12-pane horned sashes below, plus another sash on the left end wall. A narrow rear passage exists between the outshut of the south crosswing and the rear of the north crosswing.

The building has been restored from near dereliction, retaining roof trusses and some purlins. The southeast corner of the spine block features a wooden stair with reused 17th-century balusters, and there is a large fireplace to the north with a blocked window in the east wall. The cellar contains heavy chamfered beams and a cobbled floor.
