Cadw's description
Location
Set at E end of workshops, to North of Tredegar House, leading into outer yard.
History
Tredegar House was the seat of the Morgan family from the early C15 through to the mid C20. The surviving medieval house was incorporated into the South West wing of the much grander, classical house that was built between 1664 and 1672 by Sir William Morgan (d.1680). The Estate was self-sufficient throughout the C17-C20 and The Home farm is shown on the Estate map of 1827 by William Jones.
Exterior
Early C19, single storey cottage of square plan. Rendered elevations. Steeply pitched hipped, slated roof with Edwardian red brick chimney stack. W elevation has three modern casement windows in original openings, the central opening probably originally a doorway. Small, later extension to N with hipped roof and boarded door. S elevation has single small window opening to left hand side with modern window. Rear elevation of painted brick with casement windows and glazed door.
Interior
