MEILLIONYDD. The existing dwelling is T-shaped in
\nplan. The N. block, forming the cross-bar, is modern, but the
\nstem, projecting to the S., is a house of ca. 1600, though much
\naltered. It is of three storeys, the lowest floor, now a cellar,
\nbeing at the lower ground level on the \u00b7W. side. The walls are
\nboulder-built, and the roof of modern slates. On the E. front
\nall openings are modern as is the dormer window; the gable,
\nsurmounted by a modem bell-cote, is probably an addition.<\/p>\n
The W. front has a boulder plinth\u00a02 ft. high; the first-floor\u00a0windows (at main floor level) have been partly blocked
\nthough there is one enlarged window, and the three dormer
\nwindows are modern additions. On the S. gable is a tall square
\nchinmey stack with drip ledges and brick capping. The roof
\ntrusses and slates are modern. The original N. gable is oversailed
\nby the 19th-century house, but in the basement can be
\nseen the base of a projecting chimney stack and a continuation
\nof the boulder plinth.
\nThere are fireplaces in the S. gable at both the cellar and
\nmain floor levels. The former is half blocked and its bressummer
\nhas a low shaped head. The beams and some roughly
\nchamfered joists are original. A cross wall has been inserted
\nto carry the gable of the newer house. The wide fireplace on
\nthe main floor has also been largely blocked.
\nA fragmentary screen door-head is inscribed ‘X W 1616’,t
\nand the house may be of that date, though its appearance
\nsuggests the previous century.
