Old Rosedew House

Old Rosedew House is a two-storey building featuring local rubblestone walls with rendered cladding and Welsh slate gabled roofs, topped with three chimneys. The house has a single depth layout, with a later higher addition that was formerly a granary at the south end, which has higher eaves and ridge. A stone stack has been built up in brick on the north side. The east elevation of the main house includes a 2-light casement window on the upper floor.

The low wing of the east elevation shows that the first and second bays are part of Rosedew, followed by a 2-light wood casement window with small panes on both the ground and first floors, located beyond the stone stack. To the south of the end brick stack, there is a smaller 2-light window on the ground floor and a single light window on the first floor.

Adjoining the north end of the house is a former barn, which has its east elevation visible from the south end. This elevation features a small boarded loft doorway, a blocked deep segmental doorway, another small boarded loft doorway, and a window. The rear (west) elevation has not been seen.

The interior of Old Rosedew House was not observed during the resurvey. It is believed to consist of a hall and inner room, which may represent the original three-room plan, with an extension into the barn at the north end. The interior is said to contain a fireplace at both the south end and in the centre, arched stopped and chamfered stone doorways, including one between the north and south rooms, and a 'cross-passage' doorway in the west elevation. There are also stopped and chamfered beams, and a former partition between the middle and north rooms. These features are supported by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales, which indicates a plan showing a mural stair and the walls broken through at either end into the former barn and outhouse.
