Two-storey end chimney farmhouse, probably of early C17 date, to which a second range has been added to the front in 1833, thereby forming a double pile arrangement. The latter has a slate dedication plaque to its NE gable, bearing the above date and the initials J & E Fil.
Double-pile farmhouse consisting of a primary storeyed end chimney range to the rear and a late Regency range at the front. Rubble construction with slate roofs, the primary section whitened and the front range rendered. The early part has a large projecting end chimney to its NE gable with gabled breast and tall stack; squat rendered end chimneys to the front pile. The main front faces the garden and has a 3-bay late Regency symmetrical facade. Central entrance via 2 segmental stone steps, with round arch and original 6-panel door, the upper 4 raised and the lower 2 blind; simple 4-part segmental fanlight above. Elegant 12-pane C19 sash windows with cambered heads. The rear, primary pile has 2 Tudor-arched C19 Gothic windows to its NE gable, one to each floor R of the chimney breast; these have recessed small-pane iron glazing with depressed ogee intersecting heads. Outshut to the rear at R with a C20 corrugated iron lean-to porch extruded in the angle to the L; boarded inner door, C20 windows.
The interior was not inspected at the time of survey.
Listed for its special interest as a second-quarter C19 dated farmhouse with C17 adjoining range to the rear, retaining good external character.
Group value with the agricultural range at Cefn Castell.
