Cadw's description
Location
Situated in terraced row opposite the Falcon Inn.
History
One of a pair of houses attached to former Post Office, Glanadair, possibly all built together in later C19, not marked on 1844 Tithe map, and with their exposed stonework later than the inn and Brynilar opposite.
Exterior
Left one of a pair of houses, with Llwyn to right, all in squared coursed rubble stone with slate close-eaved roof and 2 pale brick chimneys, one to left of each house. Five-window range overall, 2-window to Islwyn, 3-window to Llwyn, though Llwyn appears to have been matching 2-bay house with third possibly added. Four-pane sashes with tooled stone voussoirs and slate sills. Doors have been replaced, Islwyn has door in second bay from left, with overlight, Llwyn has door in fourth bay, i.e. in similar position to door at Islwyn, without overlight. The right bay of Llwyn, against side of Glanadair is narrower, with broad cart entry with cambered head and stone voussoirs and matching sash above. Railings on low walls in front with fleur-de-lys finials to standards and urns to end standards.
Interior
Not inspected at time of survey.
Reason for designation
Included as part of group of houses in the centre of the village with The Falcon Inn, with surviving small-paned windows and other original detail.
