Cadw's description
Location
Approximately 1km NNW of Dol-gwili roundabout, on the E side of a minor road at its junction with a track to Glyn View.
History
Probably an estate worker's cottage, built in the 3rd quarter of the C19 and first shown on the 1889 Ordnance Survey.
Exterior
A single-storey double-fronted cottage of rendered walls, pyramidal corrugated iron roof and central brick stack. A pointed boarded door is flanked by 2-pane sash windows. The angles are broadly chamfered. A single-storey rendered projection with hipped slate roof projects forward on the L side. It has a 2-pane sash window.
Reason for designation
Listed as a small, unaltered C19 labourer's cottage of definite quality and character.
