Cadw's description
Location
An isolated farm approximately 1.3km E of Hundred House, reached by minor road and farm track on the E side of the A481.
History
A hearth passage house of the late C17 or possibly C18, although the present cow house is later, and shown on the 1837 Tithe map. In the second half of the C19 the front of the cow house was rebuilt and part of it was converted to a stable. A back kitchen was also added and is shown on the 1889 Ordnance Survey.
Exterior
A 2½-storey house of whitened rubble stone, slate roof and stone stack to the R. In each storey are two 2-light casement windows under wooden lintels. The L gable end has an attic window. The entrance is by the cross passage in the downhouse, which is of rubble stone with corrugated iron roof. The cross passage has a boarded door. Further R are 5 boarded doors and a window, a loft door L of centre, and weatherboarding in the loft R of centre. To the rear of the house is an added lean-to back kitchen.
Interior
Not inspected but said by RCAHM Wales to retain a post-and-panel partition, and collar-beam trusses.
Reason for designation
LIsted for its special architectural interest as a well-preserved regional vernacular farmstead.
