Cadw's description
Location
Situated in the centre of Abernant village just below and SW of the church.
History
Earlier C19 house, possibly of earlier origins.
Exterior
House, whitewashed rubble stone with close-eaved slate roof and red brick end wall stacks, replaced in earlier C20. Two storeys, double-fronted, much offset to left. Two small 2-pane single casements under eaves, over two broader casement pairs of 6 panes, and half-glazed door between. cemented surround to doorway. Windowless rubble stone right end wall. Left end added lean-to in cement blockwork. Added rear outshut, rendered.
Interior
Not accessible at time of survey.
Reason for designation
Included as a small house, retaining early C19 vernacular character. Buildings of this simple traditional character, once typical, are becoming rare in this region.
