History
Mentioned in the 1851 census, but not shown on the tithe map of 1843. On the 1891 Ordnance Survey, it is named Bryn y ceubren. It is likely that the cottage was built as an incursion on common land, a relatively late example of this phenomenon, and was built in a traditional style.
Exterior
Small 1-unit cottage, single-storey with attic, constructed of white-washed rubble stone under a slate roof with stone end stack to L. The front has a doorway to R with flat head containing split doors. Narrow single-light wooden casement with flat head to its L, above which is a raked half-dormer containing a 2-light wooden casement with large panes. W gable end has 2-light wooden casement. Integral rear lean-to with skylight to roof pitch, 2-light wooden casement to E and small light to W side.
Interior
No access to interior at time of inspection.
Reason for designation
Listed as a good example of a small squatter-type cottage built in a traditional style and retaining its character.
