A small farmhouse probably of the early C19. It is recorded in the Tithe Survey, 1839, with a farm of about 39 acres (15.80 hectares), a tenancy under the Ty-bain estate owned by Griffith Whitfield; the best front of the house faces the direction of Ty-bain.

Exterior

The gable walls are rendered and scored to resemble stone courses. Slate roof with tile ridge and brick end chimneys. Later open-fronted brick porch.

The upper front windows are of horned sash type, of four panes. Lower windows similar but of six panes. Unaltered openings with brick arches and no sills. Attic windows in gables. Three small-pane windows above and below in the rear elevation in unaltered openings with brick arches; door at left.
