History
Earlier C 19 cottage, once owned by the Cwmcynfelin estate. The row is shown on the Tithe map of 1847, but not on the earlier O.S. map 1823. Probably built as a pair with No 4, to left.
Exterior

S front has boarded door slightly right of centre, with wall-plate lintel over. C20 enlarged casement to left, small C20 casement window to right, in earlier opening.
Reason for designation
Listed as a small vernacular cottage which forms part of a group with adjoining cottages, No 4 and No 2 The Cross.
