History
The cottage is dated 1835 and appears to be one of the earliest of the buildings erected by the third Lord Newborough in the first phase of the replanning of Llandwrog as an estate village between the 1830s and c1860. Shown on 1840 Tithe Map.
Exterior
Single-storey cottage. Picturesque Gothic style typical of the earlier buildings in the replanned village. Irregularly coursed rubblestone with ashlar dressings to outer arch of porch and reddish brown brick window surrounds and chimney stacks; slate roof with coped verges and deep overhanging eaves with slate soffits. Central gabled porch with datestone "1835" above outer depressed pointed arch; ledged inner door with glazed panel to timber tympanum; 3-light timber mullioned and transomed window with cambered head and dripmould to either side of porch; integral end stacks and ridge stack to left of porch, all with rendered bases and moulded capping with chimney pots. Narrow lean-to and lower ranges to rear.
Interior
Interior not inspected at time of Survey.
Reason for designation
Included as a largely unaltered cottage of Picturesque style, forming an integral part of this important early Victorian planned village. Llandwrog is among the best-preserved such villages in this part of Wales from this period.
