Cadw's description

Set back from Station Road at the outskirts of the village.

Probably built late C18, some C20 alterations. Unoccupied at time of 1996 survey.

Brick in English garden wall bond, hipped slate roof with red ridge tiles, rendered end wall stacks. Two-storey, 2-window symmetrical elevation to road with dentil eaves course, central C20 door and trellised porch flanked by multipaned windows with cambered heads. Smaller multipaned casement windows to upper floor.

Not accessible at time of 1996 survey.

Listed as a good relatively unaltered example of a building type which rarely survives in this form.
