History
Mid/late C19 cowshed, extended by three bays to E at later date. The present arrangement is not indicated on the 1844 Tithe map. Llwyn-Cadfor was the old home of the ap Rhys family. The owner and occupier in 1844 was John Beynon (157 acres).

The 9 bays to the W are symmetrical, having two boarded doors flanked by a short loop each side, having a C20 6-pane window between and to each outer bay. Four partially blocked upper windows above the loops. The contiguous 3 bays to the right are an extension, with a joint clearly visible. Boarded door to left, C20 6-pane window to right. First floor window as above. Timber lintels. Rear with doorway to right and lean-to shed to left. At right angles to the latter is an added whitewashed rubble double pigsty with corrugated iron roof and forecourt walls having low planked gates with stone lintels overhead.
