DescriptionTy Maen is an early seventeenth century, 3-unit, chimney-backing-on-the-entry farmhouse, formerly thatched. The hall and outer room (later the kitchen) form a 2-unit range, with the parlour to the rear. The roof was raised, probably in the 19th century, making 2 full storeys.
It is a particularly well preserved example of this regional building type, the plan-form, detail and interior features all being of particular interest.
