Full Report for Listed Buildings
The list description is not intended to be a complete inventory of what is listed: it is principally intended to aid identification. By law, the definition of a listed building includes the entire building (i) and any structure or object that is fixed to the said building and ancillary to it and (ii) any other structure or object that forms part of the land and has done so since before 1 July 1948, and was within the curtilage of the building, and ancillary to it, on the date on which said building was first included in the list, or on 1 January 1969, whichever was later.

Name of Property
Bronwylfa
Locality
Llansantffraid-ym-Mechain village
Location
About 100 m north of the Lion Hotel, at the east side of Winllan Road.
History
Bronwylfa displays a datestone in the front gable reading "WST / 1862". It is thus contemporary with Glanaber and possibly also with Llwyn Onn to its rear, with the latter of which it stands back-to-back.
Exterior
A two-storey, three window symmetrically planned house, the centre bay of the front standing slightly forward and gabled, as if pedimented. The front is clad in slates, which return a small distance at the left side; the exposed part of the left side and the right side is in yellow brick. White painted eaves and verges. Slate roof with tile ridge; yellow brick end chimneys.
Flat-roofed slate-hung porch to main entrance, containing a framed panel with side and upper lighting and glazed double doors; white painted cornice. The three upper and two lower windows are of 16-pane hornless-sash type.
Interior
Interior not seen.
Reason for designation
A good mid Victorian house, which has retained its character and constitutes an element in an interesting housing group of the pre-planning era.
