Cadw's description
Location
Approximately 200m SW of the church.
History
A mid C19 cottage, first shown on the 1889 Ordnance Survey.
Exterior
A 1½ storey 2-window former cottage of whitened rubble stone and corrugated iron roof. Stacks have been removed. Openings have lintels and are offset to the R. A central boarded door has flanking windows, which have metal grilles replacing glazing. The R gable end has a small louvered attic opening to the L side. A lower projection in line to the L gable end, of similar materials to the house, has a hipped roof, and boarded door to the R under a wooden lintel.
Reason for designation
Listed as a C19 cottage of the humbler type which has retained its character and was once common in the region.
