Cadw's description

Set at right angles to the S side of the A496 to E of the farmhouse and adjacent buildings at Felinrhyd-fawr farm; parallel to an adjacent haybarn to E.

Probably late C19, contemporary with the other agricultural buildings (the stables are dated 1873) and the conversion of the house at Felinrhyd-fawr at the time of the enlargement of this estate farm.

Lofted haybarn built of mortared rubble masonry with large stones as quoins and lintels; slate roof. There is a doorway in the N gable with circular pitching hole in the apex above. Lateral walls have wide open bays with rubble pillars between.

Included as a traditional haybarn and for group value with the farmhouse and other listed items at Felinrhyd Fawr.
