Cadw's description
Location
At north side of the village of Foel.
History
Pair of late C19 cottages (built after 1886). The style is suggestive of estate building, there being some
resemblance to Wynnstay cottages in the vicinity.
Exterior
Two semi-detached cottages, each symmetrical and double fronted, in rock-faced slate masonry, with slate
roofs and tile ridges. Three chimneys. The chimneys and the arches of the lower windows are in blue
engineering bricks. The roof has a small overhang at eaves and verges. Small lean-to at right.
The lower windows are of small-pane type in three lights and the upper windows similar but of two lights.
Painted slate sills. The doors have rectangular overlights and pedimented timber canopies. The right-hand
cottage retains its original six-panel door. Original iron gates and railings at front.
Interior
Interior not seen.
Reason for designation
A good pair of late C19 estate-type cottages which have fully retained their character.
