Description
Animal House at Nantewlath is a 19th-century structure made of whitewashed rubble stone with a corrugated iron roof supported by original trusses. On the south side facing the yard, there is a central doorway with a drip stone above it and a boarded door. To the left of this doorway, there is a small square opening that is protected by a curving whitewashed wall. The west gable end is built into the bank and features a loft doorway, also with a drip stone above it, which has double boarded doors.
Inside, the lower storey retains a cobble floor, and the roof is supported by a single tie-beam truss.
