Description

Ty Tadcu is a townhouse featuring a restored Tudor-style frontage. It is constructed of stone, rendered and painted, and has a steep-pitched slate roof with a brick stack at the right end. The building has two storeys and an attic. On the first floor, there are two quarry-glazed casement windows with centre mullions set in reveals, while the ground floor has three similar windows and a centre-left Tudor-arched doorway within an extended surround that includes a small side light and a boarded door.

The interior is notable for its fine timber ceilings on both floors, which feature heavy, deeply chamfered and stopped cross beams. The close-set joists are also chamfered and stopped. The ground floor includes a large fireplace in the living room, complete with a deep chamfered stone lintel and a bread oven. Next to the fireplace, there is a Tudor-arched doorway leading to the stairs, made of stone with wooden treads, and a blocked mullioned staircase window. The ceiling at the dividing wall with the current entrance hall shows signs of alteration, with cut-off joists. On the first floor, there is another similar fireplace, beamed ceilings, and a Tudor-arched doorway leading to the attic stairs, which are made of timber. There is also a side window with diamond mullions.

In the attic, a pegged A-frame roof truss is visible, with the lower surface of the collar slightly arched. The west first floor room has joists that are on rather than set into the beams. At the rear, there is evidence of a former timber post and panel screen, with mortices and broken tenons, possibly indicating a former passage associated with the neighbouring house. An unusually arched blocked wooden doorway is present at the division, with a beam resting on a corbel.
