Description
Ty Mawr is a farmhouse built of yellow-washed rubble stone, featuring a close-eaved slate roof that is hipped at the left end. It has brick stacks on the ridge and at the right end. The building is two storeys high and has a four-window range. On the first floor, there are three narrow 6-pane sash windows to the right of the ridge stack and one to the left, above a porch. The windows have timber lintels.
On the ground floor, the left side has a timber cross window and a half-glazed door located in a gabled porch made of painted rubble stone. To the right, there is a pair of large 19th-century 18-pane sash windows separated by a brick pier, along with a door in a broad painted rubble stone porch that also features a 6-pane window. The porch is plastered on the inside and includes stone seats, a painted grained door with two large panels and two glazed panels. The heavy ovolo-moulded frame may date from the 19th century. All windows have stone sills, and the right end wall is colourwashed and windowless.
The left end of the farmhouse has a pair of casement windows on the first floor and a gabled eaves dormer. The rear left side is obscured by 20th-century farm buildings that are built against a single-storey outbuilding at right angles to the house. This outbuilding is open at the front and has a rubble stone rear and a slate roof. To the right of this, the rear wall of the house features one first-floor casement window.
The kitchen, which was not fully accessible during the survey, has two heavy beams, a large fireplace with a baking oven to the left, and a door to the right with a stone chamfered surround. The details in the main part of the house appear to be from the 19th century.
