Cadw's description
Location
The building lies immediately W of the chapel on the farm road to Hafodty Hafod Dre.
History
Built as a pair of cottages, probably in the mid C19.
Exterior
Built of rubble stonework, rendered to the front and rear, and slate roof. Reflected pair of cottages, each consisting of one room with a narrow service bay containing the front door on the outer side of the building. Boarded doors, and small timber casement windows in deep reveals. No windows on the rear. Coped gable at the W end only. Rendered central four-flue stack. The cottages have now been made into one dwelling.
Reason for designation
Included as a pair of typical hill-country farm workers cottages, of group value with the chapel and telephone call box at Hafod, characteristic of the smallest category of early C19 upland settlement in rural Wales.
