Immediately north-west of St Tydecho's church, Foel.  

 

 

A three-unit vernacular farmhouse of the C17 or C18, in a group with St Tydecho''s church. In 1838 it was recorded as a homestead owned and occupied by John Evans. In the late C19 it was a public house. Iron windows probably inserted in the early C19, and the house probably re-roofed at the same time.  

A three-unit two-storey house in axe-dressed slate with a slate roof and tile ridge. The house ranges north/south and faces east to a small enclosed yard. There is a small front extension to the central unit under a catslide projection of the main roof; at rear a gabled wing also attached to the central unit, with brick-capped stone end-chimney. There is a brick-capped chimney at the south gable and another, rendered and brick capped, between the south and central units. The house retains small-pane windows of C19 type including several in iron both at front and rear. Modern doors. Single-storey outbuildings in similar materials attached to north end. Detached single-storey C19 (pre-1886) outbuilding in similar materials to east of yard, with brick chimney.  

Interior not seen.  

A vernacular farmhouse probably originally of baffle-entry type which has retained its character notwithstanding minor alteration, and is of group value with St Tydecho''s church.
