Cadw's description
Location
The farm is situated in a rural area on high ground on the W side of the Ebbw Valley E of Trinant.
History
Probably C18-early C19. The farm range possibly precedes the current house, which could be a later remodelling.

Attached lower farm range, not a continuous build, has a single low slit ventilator and two small 3-pane square windows with timber lintels and sills. Small triangular ventilator in gable end with pitching door below. Rear wing of farmhouse to full height has single window range of 12-pane cambered-head casements to each floor. Granary steps at angle between farmhouse and attached range now give access to house. Rear of farm range has central doorway with stable door, small 3 pane window to right, blocked opening to left; cast iron trough by wall. Low single storey extension to far side of farmhouse with end stack; the rear cross wing has a barn bay with ventilation slit.
