History

Contemporary with the cottages, the shorter plots were primarily used for the growing of vegetables and the longer for the keeping of livestock.

Exterior

Low uncoursed rubblestone walls on opposite side of road to cottages and to the end boundary of the plots on this side, connected by slate fencing consisting of thin vertical slate slabs set into ground linked by horizontal wire, including to common boundary, which is also hedged. To the rear of the cottages, the boundaries are slate fenced to sides and back, the latter being part of the long slate fence which defines the rear boundary of all the plots to the cottages along Tan y Bwlch. The front and rear plots extend approximately 100m and 60m respectively from their respective road frontages.

Reasons for Listing

Included for group value and historical association with Nos.3 & 4 Tan y Bwlch; the boundaries to these 2 cottages are among the best-preserved of all the field boundaries at this important quarrymen's settlement.
