Cadw's description
Location
Situated by churchyard at Church of St Ina.
History
C17 to C19 , which was allowed to become derelict from 1964 and partly rebuilt using old walls from c1985, the remainder still derelict (1992). The house was a good example of a small-scale gentry house of the C17 to C18, rare in Cardiganshire. It belonged to the Musgrave family from c1630, then the Jones family, until 1829 when Edward Warren Jones left it to his friend Captain Longcroft RN, and to the Longcrofts until c1920.
Exterior
Small country house Rubble stone with some slate hanging and slate roofs. Two storeys. The original house was roughly T-plan with a C17 core, C18 interior details and a C19 addition at E end. All interior details were lost in the years of dereliction and what has been rebuilt comprises two sections of the eastern range (or downstroke of the T) one possibly C17 or early C18 in origin and the end part probably C19, each with stone E stack and small-paned sash windows. Earlier part has two-storey 2-window front to churchyard with further one-window section and door to right still derelict. To left, slightly lower E end section, probably C19, Derelict and largely collapsed cross-section has one gable to N end, collapsed W side, with big chimney in S return, then, projecting S, two gables, that to right partly slate-hung.
