Cadw's description

Together with the side elevation of Ty Brith forms the S range of Twyn Square.

Early C19.

Former stable/kennel range, now dwelling. Most prominent town elevation is to Twyn Square, a long range of rubble stone with hipped slate roof and brick lateral stacks. Two storeys. Three-window range of widely spaced small round-arched 6-pane sashes with brick dressings to first floor; segmental-arched with 9 panes to ground floor; sympathetically replaced glazing. Blocked segmental-arched doorway at right. Attached a stretch of stone wall with shallow coping, swept down from below eaves-level, matching that to right. The inner-facing elevation is quite different, stucco-rendered and painted with triple gables with decorative pierced barge-boards. Small apex lights with stone surrounds and hoodmoulds, first floor cross-framed windows with lattice glazing under square hoodmoulds, similar ground floor windows, a 4-window range; three lights to sides, all with yellow brick hoodmoulds. Central doorway with boarded door with decorative hinges and divided overlight; second boarded door to right.

Listed as an integral part of the Ty Brith complex. Group value with this and other listed buildings in Twyn Square.
