Cadw's description
Location
Dolwar-fach farmyard
History
Probably C18 farm outbuildings range.
Exterior
A partly lofted three-bay range of farm outbuildings built on strongly a sloping site at the south-east of Dolwar-fach farmyard, in white painted quasi-rubble local stone. Slate roof with tile ridge and cemented verge. The slope is exploited to provide cart sheds at the lower part and animal sheds at the higher part, with a uniform roof.
Three doors to left with timber lintels, one a heck door. One small window. At right is a pair of unequal double doors with a boarded loft above, with a loft hatch.
Reason for designation
A good farm building range of traditional character, listed also for group value with Dolwar-fach farmhouse and its association with Ann Griffiths, the noted late C18 Welsh revival hymnologist.
