History

Gwysaney is a Jacobean mansion built in 1603, although the present group of outbuildings belong principally to the revival of the Gwysaney Estate in the C19 by the Davies-Cooke family. The stable was built in the third quarter of the C19 and is first shown on the 1870 Ordnance Survey.

Exterior

Further R is a window with rock-faced segmental head, small-pane metal-framed glazing and sliding vents. At the L end are double half-glazed boarded doors under a stone lintel. Three ventilation strips are in the loft to the centre. The end and rear walls are rubble stone. Against the L gable end is an added lean-to greenhouse, above which are 2 ventilation strips. The rear has a loft doorway under a gablet to the L side.
