C18 cottage. The Tithe Map of the parish, 1842, did not show many individual buildings but shows the parcel of land of just over 6 acres (2.4 hectares) is marked as 'Maen'; as are several others. Owned by Hampton Lewis John Hampton Esq and occupied by Elizabeth Jones.
Two-storey cottage, extended to the rear by a single storey outshut at the N end under a catslide roof. Built of rubble masonry, limewashed, with boulder foundations. Roof of old small slates, grouted, tiled coping at L (S) end. Rectangular gable stacks, with dripstones and capping. The principal elevation opens E into a small yard, the ground floor openings at the N end now boarded up but seem to be a mirror to the panelled door and small-paned sash window at the S end; the windows flanking the paired doorways. There are 2 x 1st floor windows set directly under the eaves, that to S, over the S doorway, is an uneven small-paned sash; that to N, over the N window, a larger 4-pane horned sash. The rear elevation could not be clearly seen, but there appears to be a small paned 1st floor light under the eaves. The cottage is set at right angles to the road and the S gable has a wide doorway into the rear outshut, a single ground floor window to its left and a smaller 1st floor window to the L (E) end; both windows are 4-pane fixed lights.
Interior not inspected at the time of the survey. Said to retain all internal fixtures and fittings.
Listed as an early C18 cottage which retains much of its vernacular character and which, together with the adjacent Ty Newydd, forms a strong visual group typifying the rural village landscape.
