Description
10 Gelli Houses, built in 1883 for coal miners working at nearby pits owned by the Glyncorrwg Coal Mining Company, are notable for their single-storey construction, which is unusual for the period. These houses are among the last examples of this type, featuring a four-room layout with a lean-to pantry at the back, although originally only two of the rooms were heated. The houses initially shared a communal bakehouse, which had been demolished by 1904.
The buildings consist of two rows of six double-fronted houses arranged end-to-end but not quite parallel. The walls are made of rubble stone and have been rendered, while the roofs have been renewed. Most of the brick chimneys remain, with some also rendered. The windows and doors have been replaced but are mostly in their original openings.
