Cadw's description
Location
Parallel to road at slightly lower level.

Three mirrored pairs with extra later house to R; houses have single window to each floor. Large square-framed panels with one straight angle-brace visible (others apparent in old photos); heavy timbers to central section; end houses to L have timbers of lighter build, but same design; end house to R has timbers of lighter build again, and different frame pattern.
