Location
Located diagonally opposite Hendre Wen farmhouse, with a C19 byre range adjoining to the S.
History
Square stable block, probably C17.
Exterior
One-and-a-half storeyes. Of whitened rubble construction, partly on boulder foundations (visible to the W); slate roof. Boarded stable entrance to R with crude projecting lintel.

Beneath the stair, a kennel niche, an early example of this feature. 2 small primary windows to the ground floors of both the E and W gable ends (one to each side blocked); 2-pane glazing over 4-part vent-slats. Small apex windows to each side, that to the E a 4-pane fixed window, that to the W with modern glazing.
Adjoining to the S a later C19 byre range, a replacement of an earlier building; modern openings.
Interior
2-bay roof with pegged collar truss.
Reason for designation
