Cadw's description
Location

Exterior
Gable entry privy. Built of rubble masonry with roof of large slates and tiled ridge. The doorway is offset to the L of the NW gable, a rectangular doorway with timber lintel.
Interior
Interior not inspected at the time of the survey.
Reason for designation
Included as a privy building which retains a strong vernacular character and which forms a coherent and visual group with the adjacent farmhouse at Rhos y Gad.
