Cadw's description
Location
Fronheulog is a short row of two cottages immediately SW of the church, behind Bryn Aber and backing on to the graveyard extension.
History
Probably early-mid C19 though perhaps converting an earlier building, and forming part of a larger row. Fronheulog originally comprised a pair of cottages but is now a single dwelling.
Exterior
2 storey, 2 window range cottage. Large rubble stone construction with renewed slate roof; roughcast render to gable wall and to (rebuilt) gable end stack. Doorway to right of centre with former doorway of second cottage (now a 16-pane sash window) alongside it to the left. Other windows are 12-pane sashes, with similar windows in gabled half-dormers above.
Reason for designation
Included for group value with the church and adjoining buildings at the centre of Llangybi.
