Hafod-y-Bwlch is a building essentially created in three phases: a late medieval timber framed hall-house which forms the west range; a timber-framed storeyed cross-wing to the south end of the hall, itself extended by 2 short parallel gabled wings to the east in the early 17th-century; and the encasing of the original timber frame of the hall range and cross-wing in stone.

The 3-bay hall range retains evidence of an original 2-bay open hall with the survival of a truss with fine cusped braces. The fine 17th-century staircase with heavily moulded string and turned newels was introduced from Five Fords, Marchwiel c1970.
