Cadw's description
Location
Situated at the NE end of Y Felinheli in the Aber Pwll area. On the SE side of the former A487, some 250m SW of its junction with the B4547 to Pentir. Set below road across stream with half-round hedged path giving access to the three houses.
History
Former Vaynol estate cottages built c1864 to replace those of the same name which stood on the other side of Afon Heulyn. These were demolished when the Vaynol estate wall was erected and a new road constructed alongside.
Reason for designation
Included as one of a picturesque estate cottage group, gabled in loosely C17 vernacular style. Interesting also for the garden plan reflecting the triple division.
