History

Mid-late C19 cowshed range which is part of a planned farmstead group. Bodcoll was a farm on the Hafod estate, and these buildings are likely to have been built by the estate.

Rear elevation has further similar doorway at far left, and 3 12-paned windows with voussoir heads. Shorter range projects into yard: single central doorway facing into yard. Its gable end (facing the house) has central doorway and oculus at apex with three tiers of voussoirs forming its surround.

A raised pitched walkway runs from the gable end of the long range to the upper gable of the shorter range.
