Cadw's description
Location
15 m south-east of Tyddyn Cynar.
History
Possibly related to the C17 improvement of Tyddyn Cynar; the bread oven is perhaps an C18 adaptation.
Exterior
A small detached building in similar masonry to the house, with a span roof in slate. Like the house, it is planned downslope with a gable to the south-west. Altered fenestration. Doors to north-west and south-west.
Interior
Large fireplace against the north-east wall with a bread oven.
Reason for designation
Listed as a rare example of an exterior hearth building, and for group value with Tyddyn Cynar.
