Description
Fro Fawr is a two-storey farmhouse built of stone with a stone tiled roof and rectangular end chimneys made of brick. On the left side, there is a slightly advanced two-window section featuring two casement windows on the first floor. The ground floor has a doorway with a gabled hood and a casement window to its left. To the right, there is a three-window block, with the right gable displaying a small window towards the front and a brick outshut at the rear. The left gable has a small window towards the front on the ground floor and a window on each floor towards the rear, along with a gabled block at the back.
Inside, the farmhouse is said to retain a decorated cupboard doorhead featuring classicising relief and rosettes in the spandrels. It also has a shaped door head, a post and panel partition, stop-chamfered beams, and a large moulded stone fire surround.
