Cwm-cidy Farm

Nos.1-3 Cwm-cidy Farm The former farm buildings are arranged in two yards facing the farmhouse, the older rickyard to the left with the former barn, engine-house and stables and the stockyard to the right. They are now converted into three houses, comprising No. 1 on the left being the left (stable) wing of the former rickyard and part of the barn, No. 2 being part of the barn and the central cart shed wing, and No. 3 being the rear and right hand ranges of the former stockyard. The whole complex is built of squared dressed limestone laid in regular courses, openings with stone voussoir heads, hipped Welsh slate roofs, four stone chimneys have been added to the separate ranges. The south-east elevation of the former barn, from west to east, has four wide bays with modern hardwood windows and doors in mostly unaltered openings except possibly for the large elliptically headed one on the ground floor. This comes first, followed by two glazed vents with a window above, then a doorway at the top of an external stone staircase, finally two more windows. The rear elevation (not seen at resurvey) is said to have had a cartshed with four segmental headed arched entrances. Against the eastern end of the rear elevation there is a polygonal engine house (not seen at resurvey), which was built in c1858, originally probably with six round-headed openings, one of which was blocked when seen in 1975, and the other enlarged. The north-east supporting wing (No. 2) to the western yard is lower. The front wall of the northern portion has a doorway flanked to each side by a window opening; the southern portion has been an animal shed with five semi-elliptical headed openings, but it may have been intended as an implement shed. From south to north, the front wall of the south-west range (No. 1), which is also lower, has a doorway, then two windows, a second doorway and another window, all modern harwood joinery. North-east and north-west wings of north-east yard added c1858 in similar style and materials. Front wall of north-east range (No. 3) with four semi-elliptical headed arches towards northern end and with three openings with stone voussoirs towards southern end, all now with modern harwood joinery; the rear elevation of this range is blind. The range to the left has five french casements and a small window, the rear of this range was not seen at resurvey. The rear wall of No. 2 on the left has only one small window. The interiors are unlikely to retain any features other then the roof trusses.

Previously the rear and right hand ranges of the former stockyard.

The interior of the main range to the right retains its king-post truss roof structure.
