Cadw's description
Location
Located 0.5km N of Hafod Garegog immediately adjacent to the Nanmor stream.
History
Second-half C17 barn of particular quality. The barn was associated with a former (contemporary) mill and a domestic range which survives (partly rebuilt) nearby; it is probable that the whole complex served the C17 house of Hafod Garegog, located 0.5km to the S.
Exterior
Small rectangular barn of rubble construction partly on boulder foundations; modern slate roof with slab-coped and kneelered gable parapets. Symmetrical long sides, each with central entrance and flanking vertical slit lights. The entrances have cambered arches and rough-dressed voussoirs with returned slate labels above, the label stops in the form of curved corbels in the local vernacular tradition. Further slit lights to the gable ends; that to the R has a later external stepped access to an upper entrance. Modern boarded doors.
Interior
3-bay modern roof.
Reason for designation
Listed for its special interest as a fine example of a high-status C17 regional barn retaining its original external character.
