Not shown on the 1840 Tithe Map, the house appears to have been constructed as a manse for the adjacent chapel when it was rebuilt c1860.  

Exterior
Regularly coursed and dressed granite blocks, rendered to gable ends; slate roof with rendered integral end stacks. 2 storeys. 3-window front; 4-paned sashes directly below eaves and C20 windows to either side of central entrance (C20 half-glazed door), ground-floor windows and doorway all with stone lintels. Single-storey lean-to on right gable end with small 4-paned sash window to front and integral stack to side.  

Interior
Interior not inspected at time of resurvey.  

Reason for designation
Included as an essentially unaltered mid-C19 manse built to serve the contemporary chapel, with which it forms a group as the nucleus of a typical upland hamlet in the slate quarrying landscape.
