Cadw's description

On the eastern boundary of Llanmaes community closer to the village of St. Athan.

A Tudor Gothic style house characteristic of c1840. It is shown on the Tithe map of 1843.

The building is roughcast, probably over local rubblestone and has Welsh slate roofs. Designed in an only slightly suggested Tudor Gothic style. One main range with a rear service wing. Two storeys, four windows, 8 over 8 pane sashes. The entrance is in the third bay from the left and has a projecting gabled porch with a modern replacement door in a 4-centred head, side windows to the porch. Above the porch the window is a standard 6 over 6 pane sash and above this is an eaves gable with a large moulded timber pendant. The roof is hipped with end stacks and a third in the centre on the rear wall, paired diamond set red brick shafts.
The rear elevation is plain, mostly with replacement plastic windows.

Interior not available for inspection at resurvey.

Included as a c1840 house which retains its architectural character.
