Long established lowland farmhouse, the present building probably replaced the cottage on the other side of the yard as the principal dwelling at Tan-y-Bryn during the C17. It was extensively remodelled in the early C19 and again much altered in the late C20, including after the recording work carried out by the RCAHMW in the 1950s.
Basic L-plan consisting of long rectangular 2-storey range, aligned roughly north-west to south-east, with short 2-storey range running at right-angles to the rear. Constructed of limewashed roughly coursed rubblestone on boulder plinth; graded slate roof. Front wall of main range has 2 C20 windows in earlier openings on each floor grouped to centre, with entrance to left. Square integral end stack to left, partly projecting and on 4 roughly rounded corbels, and rebuilt integral end stack to right.
Much altered in late C20, including C20 staircase. Left ground-floor room retains large open fireplace with chamfered beam and exposed joists resting on cross beam; position of former winder staircase adjacent to fireplace.
Included, despite considerable modification, as the principal building at Tan-y-Bryn forming a good grouping with the cottage opposite.
