History

Mid to late C19 additions to this early to mid C19 estate farm. Shown on 1st edition Ordnance Survey map surveyed in 1887. More recently linked by corrugated iron roof.

Glynllifon was the seat of the Wynn family and Sir Thomas John Wynn became the 1st Lord Newborough in 1776. The house was rebuilt after a fire 1836-48 by Edward Haycock, architect of Shrewsbury.

Exterior

Pair of open-sided hay barns with half-hipped slate roofs; built of local rubble with red brick jambs, gables and infills. Each barn is 4-bay with some infill to the sides. The gable ends have patterned ventilators, blocked to the north-western of the two; slate lintels to the tall gable end openings. Segmental arched corrugated iron roof links the two barns. King-post trusses.

Each barn is similar to that close to the watermill.
