Glynhir Paddock Range

Cadw's description

Location

To the north-east of the farmyard at Glynhir, north of the barn.

History

A stables range probably added to Glynhir as one of the improvements following the acquisition of Glynhir by Peter DuBuisson in 1770.

Exterior

A long building of two storeys in local sandstone rubble, in places brought to courses. Roof of local sandstone slabs, canted and hipped at the west end and half-hipped at the other. At the west end both corners are canted. Small modern chimney inserted in north slope near west end.
A low shed at the east end links the Paddock range to the former greenhouses (ruined). At the west end gate to the stable range closed the paddock from the farmyard.
North elevation facing the paddock: three windows to upper storey, all square with cambered heads. The left window is a small fixed light of nine panes. The other two are larger replaced casement windows. To the ground storey, from the left: small square window with timber mullion and ten panes; modern replaced door in original cambered opening, enclosed by a large lean-to glazed porch with plinth wall and roof in similar stone; another similar door but without porch; and a modern fixed light window in a former door opening with a lower cambered head.
Small window in the west elevation. South elevation much altered, with later stables abutting at centre.

Reason for designation

Listed for group value as one of an exceptionally complete series of estate buildings at Glynhir.
