Description
The barn at Llanddewi Court is constructed from roughly coursed local rubblestone and features a Welsh slate roof. The original stone courses noted in 1980 are no longer visible. On the north side, there is a central cart entry, a long slit vent to the left, and a short vent to the right that leads into the hayloft, along with a small vent and a door below that access the cowhouse. To the left, the barn is extended by a 19th-century stable that aligns with it, and there is also a small wing that projects forward. The south elevation mirrors the arrangement of features found on the north side. The west gable rises two storeys due to the sloping ground. The lower floor contains framed doorways leading to the cow stalls and a central four-light oak diamond-mullioned window. Originally, the entire structure was covered by a pentice, but now only the ends of the supporting beams remain visible. Above, the hayloft features another four-light window in the gable, although only one mullion is still intact. This window is positioned on a stringcourse.
Historically, this building served as a corn barn, which included a cow-house at the west end and a hayloft above. The open framing that once separated the cow-house, which was noted in 1980, has mostly been removed except for one queen post, although the mortices in the tiebeam are still visible. The roof consists of five bays with principal rafters that are halved and pegged at the apex, complete with collars, ties, and three tiers of trenched purlins.
