Description
Nos. 8 and 9 Tre-Elidyr are paired houses built from local red sandstone random rubble, featuring dressed quoins and window surrounds, and topped with stone slate roofs. Constructed in a 17th century style with Arts-and-Crafts influences, both houses are canted, creating a butterfly plan. They are single storey with an attic. The main range is shared between the two houses, while the service wings are canted away, presenting a convex side to the road and a concave side to the garden and green.
The front door is located in the main range, with a service entrance in the shorter canted wings. The main range features a plank door and a large gabled half dormer above, which contains a 3-light casement. The canted wing has a tall, massive stone external stack, flanked by 2-light casements and another small window above. The wings also include single storey weatherboarded extensions that house the service entrance, WC, and coal store. The steeply pitched roof has a shared ridge stack at the junction of the two houses.
On the concave garden elevation, there is a 3-light window below and a dormer above, similar to the front, along with a plank door and an unusual stone gabled porch. The canted wing features two 2-light windows below and a small 2-light dormer above.
The interior has not been seen during the resurvey, but it is reported to be a mirror image of No. 8 and largely unaltered.
