Cadw's description
Location
Located at end of track in pasture fields approximately 600m north-east of Ffordd Clynnog.
History
Shown on the 1840 Tithe Map, the farmhouse is likely to have been built in the early C19.
Exterior
Of regularly coursed rubblestone under slate roof with integral end stacks. 2 storeys. 3-window front; 4-paned sashes with C20 metal shutters; central entrance.
Interior
Interior not inspected at time of Survey.
Reason for designation
Included as a substantially unaltered early C19 lowland farmhouse, within the vernacular tradition, the very regular coursing of its masonry suggesting that it is slightly later than the nearby farmhouses at Cae-efa-lwyd-fawr and Penbryn Mawr.
