Description

The former cow-house at Ty'n y Cellar is a single-storey building oriented north-south. It is made of red rubble sandstone and has a slate roof. The south gable end features a wide doorway. On the west side, there was originally a doorway with quoins to the left of center, which is now part of a northern addition in a lighter stone that has been converted into a window. To the right in the red sandstone section, there is a blocked doorway. The east wall has a doorway flanked by two windows on the left and one window on the right, all with wooden frames. The door on this side is directly opposite the one on the west side, creating a through-passage. The window to the left of the door was originally a door itself.

Inside, the building has been modernized with a concrete floor, and there is a partition wall to the south of the through-passage.
