Cadw's description
Location
Slightly set back from the S side of a country lane which leads W off the A496 in Ynys towards the Church of St Michael; to NNE of the house at Tyddyn Eglwys.
History
Early-mid C19 lofted stable and cartshed, contemporary with the adjacent rectory for which it was built.
Exterior
Set at right angles to the rectory and built along the E side of the front garden or courtyard. Built of coursed, mortared, rubble masonry; slate roof with tiled ridge. The range is built into the slope with the loft entrance facing W and raised by a short flight of stone steps. The E wall faces an enclosed yard and has two cartshed bays at ground floor level, each of which has a flat head comprised of a massive stone. Above each cartshed bay is a 4-paned light set under the eaves.
Interior
The interior was not inspected at the time of the survey.
Reason for designation
Included as a little altered early-mid C19 lofted stable range which forms a group with the adjacent rectory at Tyddyn Eglwys for which it was built.
