Description

Glan-y-nant is a building constructed from local rubble sandstone, topped with an artificial stone slate roof. It features a long, single-depth range that consists of several builds, all being one storey with attics and maintaining a continuous roofline.

The entrance elevation has seven bays, with the entrance located in the central bay. Most of the windows are two and three-light timber casements, primarily dating from the late 20th century, although the openings may be original. Notably, the window in the fourth bay to the right of the entrance appears to have an ancient frame. The entrance itself is framed by a late 20th-century porch, which contains a 16th-century four-centred chamfered doorframe. There are pentices over the third and fifth windows, with supporting timbers set directly into the wall, though their age is uncertain. The roof features five late 20th-century dormers with two-light casements and gabled roofs, along with two ridge stacks that have been rebuilt. The left return includes a small modern rendered extension, while the right gable end has late 20th-century windows.

On the garden elevation, there are two doors and six windows arranged in the sequence: door, window, window, window, window, window, door, window. All the joinery is late 20th-century, with a very small window at the right-hand end. The third window from the left appears to have been converted from the original cross-passage entry. This elevation also features six dormers similar to those on the entrance elevation.

The interior has undergone significant alterations and modernization. The cross-passage has been removed. There are two fireplaces; one has a chamfered stone frame that likely dates back to the 16th century, which Fox and Raglan suggest is a remnant of the late medieval house, while the other has stone jambs and an oak lintel that may have been replaced. Additionally, part of an old staircase remains. The roofs are of the upper cruck/principal rafter type with ties, featuring two different types of trusses—two in the later extension and three in the main roof—both made from slender scantling, with the roof having been reconstructed above them.
