Shown on 5 historical map sheets, the earliest the 1795 "To Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn Bart ... the map of the six counties of North Wales is most humbly inscribed by his obedient humble servant" (Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru – The National Library of Wales).
Cadw's description
Location
The pair of cottages stands at the W end of the village on the S side of the main road opposite the school.
History
The building may have begun as a single dwelling, for which slight evidence of a central door survives, and was subsequently divided as a pair of C19 cottages.
Exterior
No 2, at the W end, retains its original gable end boarded door, and has a corrugated iron extension at right angles at the rear.
Reason for designation
Included as a good example of village vernacular cottages retaining some original detail, including the front small-pane sash windows, of group value within the conservation area of Llanystumdwy.
