Borth Wen

The main range has a narrow central stair hall with through living room to L (formerly 2 rooms with smaller room to rear); parlour to R with pantry to its rear. The stairs are offset to the rear left; irregularities in the ground plan, and the survival of a stop-chamfered beam in the living room are indicative of earlier origins, perhaps as a hall and parlour plan with cross passage (the main entrance and the doorway to the rear wing still align). All rooms retain moulded 6-panel doors; that to the pantry of simpler design. The stairs divide at the end of the main flight; one short flight leading L to a room at the back of the house, two steps leading to a room above the back-kitchen (C20 boarded door), and the main stair returning to the R. Three bedrooms leading off upper landing. The back-kitchen has a short screen to the R of the back door. Wide bressumer over inglenook fireplace. Central cross-beam. All timbers have been boxed in.

A substantial farmhouse in the Georgian vernacular tradition. 2-storey, 3-window farmhouse with 2-storey back-kitchen, forming L-shaped plan; lean-to addition at W end of the domestic wing and lean-to porch to N. Built of local rubble masonry, main part of the house with rendered elevations to E and N; S and W walls slate hung. Roof of small old slates, heavily grouted; tiled ridge and coping and gable stacks with dripstones and tiled capping. The principal elevation faces E, a 3-window range with central doorway; all openings have shallow cambered heads, windows are 16-pane sashes, with slate sills. The door is boarded with a shallow rectangular 5-pane overlight. The rear (W) elevation has similar windows and a 2-pane sash stair window towards the centre, in the angle with the wing. 6-pane sash windows in gable elevation to road. The rear service wing is a 2-window range with doorway to L (E) under a lean-to porch. N elevation un-rendered stone. Ground floor 8-pane sash window to R (W) with cambered stone voussoir head; small first floor windows 4 and 6-pane sashes, set directly under the eaves. To the rear (S) there is a ground floor 6-pane sash window to the L (W) and a small single paned fixed light set under the eaves to the R. The lean-to addition at the W end of the domestic wing has a narrow doorway under a timber lintel in the N wall; partially blocked with brick.
