Description
Colourwashed plastered cladding, presumably over local rubblestone, Welsh slate gabled roof, though formerly known to have been thatched, red ridge tiles. Two storeys, single depth plan with an added rear wing. Main or north-west elevation of three bays with, on the first floor three iron framed windows with iron glazing bars, four panes wide with the centre portions opening outwards. One similar window on ground floor, a modern window and a modern gabled porch. Large rubble stack to left hand gable end, stack in front of ridge to right hand gable end. Left gable end blind, including the later wing. Right gable has external stone stair leading to upper hall door, now replaced by another iron framed window, seven panes wide with two opening sections. This gabled section has a lower ridge and another iron window with central opening casement in the gable end. Rear elevation entirely rewindowed with factory made timber casements.
The interior was not available for inspection at resurvey. RCAHMW records that inside the upper floor originally comprised a single large unheated chamber; while there were two chambers to the ground floor with straight-cut stops with fillet and chamfered beams. The hall has a large fireplace and a bread oven.
