Description

The Shelter Shed at Lower Dyffryn is a 19th-century open-fronted structure made of rubble stone with a slate roof. It features a wall plate that is supported by three round tapering stone pillars, although the southern pillar has been replaced by a timber post in the 20th century. The rear wall of the shed is blind, meaning it does not have any openings.
