Cadw's description
Location
Situated skirting the lane running northwards towards Capel Gosen, immediately east and south of Ty'n y Lon.
History
Garden wall with gates and railings. Cast-iron railings and gates probably of late C19 date, the unusual design with branches off a serpentine-curved upright is probably local. Similar railings at Glanadail, Llanilar.
Exterior
C19 garden wall with pedestrian gate and decorative railings. Lime-washed rubble stone dwarf wall with slate coping. Cast iron railings rising from coping with unusual wavy-vine railings terminating above top bar in spike finials. Small entrance gate to E has similar railings and finials with horizontal middle bar. Wall turns to W at S extremity.
Reason for designation
Included as a distinctive and unusual example of cast-iron rails and for group value with Ty'n y Lon.
