Cadw's description
Location
On the N side of the longhouse.
History
Probably built in the C18 and later than the longhouse. The stable is shown on the Llangynwyd Tithe map of 1842 as part of a much longer range, and was subsequently partly rebuilt.
Exterior
A stable of rubble stone with a corrugated iron roof. Facing the byre to the S are 2 doorways, under a drip stone to the R, and a narrow window L of centre. In the uphill gable end is a small-pane window with wooden mullion beneath a C19 drip stone. This was probably a loft doorway originally and is served by a ramp on the uphill end with a retaining wall continuous with the S wall. The lower gable end has corrugated iron sheds attached, and a ventilation strip below the apex.
Interior
Not inspected.
Reason for designation
Listed for group value with the Nantyfedw longhouse.
