house, CLASHAGAD UPPER

Detached five-bay single-storey house, built c.1820, with porch to rear. Set back from the road within a modern farm. Now vacant. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, smooth rendered chimneystack with terracotta pot and concrete coping to eaves. Flat corrugated-iron roof to rear porch. Roughcast rendered walls with smooth rendered plinth. Timber sash windows with stone sills. Square-headed door opening with panelled door and overlight. Square-headed door opening to porch with timber panelled door.

Set at an angle back from a busy national road, this house belongs to another time. Its neat exterior retains attractive elements including multiple-pane sash windows and a pitched slate roof. Together these features create a modest, yet architecturally appealing structure. Today the house is part of a farm, but retains its domestic character.
