Description
Lower Cefn Carnau is a two-storey house that has been completely rendered and painted, likely over local rubblestone, and features an interlocking concrete tile roof. The building consists of two sections: the original house on the right and an outbuilding that has been incorporated into it on the left, along with a single-storey bakehouse further left.
The main section of the house has two sash windows, probably from the late Victorian period, each with 6 over 6 panes, and a central door located in a modern gabled porch. The eaves appear to have been raised, likely in the early 19th century, and the roof has a moderate pitch with a gable stack on the right. The former outbuilding, now part of the house, features two modern windows above a door and a wider window, and it also seems to have been raised, with a slightly steeper pitched roof and an external stack on the left gable. The bakehouse has a modern window as well. The rear elevation has not been seen.
The 1980 listing noted a chimney with a spiral stair beside it at the right end of the house and mentioned a post and panel partition opposite this with a Tudor-headed doorway. The inner room to the left of this partition, which was previously subdivided, has two subsidiary chimneys. Fox and Raglan also reported the presence of 'Wern-hir stops'.
