Dated 1793 on the tie beam directly to right of the doorway. The building has been renovated in the late C20, the roof has been re-slated but the original trusses and purlins remain.
The farmhouse of Bryn Nantllech probably also dates to the C18, and built as a linear range with a central 3-bay farmhouse with lofted stable to SW end, lofted cartshed to NW. It was listed 24/05/1985, but was extensively modernised in the late C20, removing its historic character, and then delisted in 2018.
Five bay cowhouse with catslide roof over a lean-to addition at the left (SE) end of the front elevation and a small flat roofed addition at the right (NW). Built of rubble masonry; slate roof with tiled ridge. The entrance elevation faces the yard and house to the NE and has 3 doorways, 1 to the far left (to the lean-to addition), 1 offset to the left and one to the right with 2 modern timber casement windows between, that to the left in a partly blocked doorway; all openings have timber lintels. There is a further doorway and window to the flat roofed addition at the NW corner. There is a ventilation slit in the apex of the left gable return, and a pitching door in the apex of the right gable return.
Exposed roof of 5 bays, roughly chamfered queen post trusses with angled braces; that to the right of the entrance (doorway offset to the left end) bears the incised date 1793. Slate partitions at SE end.
Listed for its special architectural interest as a good surviving example of a late C18 cowhouse.
