Cadw's description
Location
Reached by a kilometre-long farm track from a minor road about 2 km north of Pont-Llogel. Farm outbuilding to north.
History
A small Wynnstay estate farmhouse of a locally common type, built in this case for Mr Evans, a tenant who was both an estate mason and a farmer on a small scale (and who therefore might himself have had some hand in building it?). Pen-yr-allt was built c. 1880 replacing an earlier farmhouse. The windows have been restored without loss of character.
Exterior
A two-storey, three window small farmhouse in axe-dressed uncoursed masonry with larger selected quoins, facing a small garden and with its rear to its farmyard. Slate roof with tile ridge. Stone end-chimney at left. Outshut and small recent addition to rear.
Two or three light small-pane upper windows with iron opening casements. Similar three-light windows with transoms below and at sides, with segmental arches. Stone sills. Small central stone porch with slate roof; modern semi-glazed door with steps.
Reason for designation
A well-conserved small Wynnstay estate farmhouse of the late C19.
