History

Mid to late C19 cottage, built on part of Glan yr afon, recorded in the tithe apportionment of the parish, 1840, as being owned by Richard Richards Humphreys Esq, Lord Tottenham and occupied by Thomas Lloyd, a farmer of close to 80 acres. Extended by the addition of a single storey wing to L (W) gable in C20 and appeared to under restoration at the time of the survey (July 2003).

Exterior

Two storey farmhouse, built of mortared rubble masonry with large stones as quoins and lintels. Slate roof with slightly advanced eaves and slate hung verges; rectangular stone stack with capping at R (E) gable and external square stack to L. The principal elevation faces the road and river valley to S, with central boarded door and flanking 2-light timber casement windows. The wing to L probably replaces an earlier service wing and has smooth rendered elevations and modern timber casement windows.

Interior

The interior was not inspected at the time of the survey (June/July 2003).
