1. Dated 1776 and believed to have been built for Hester Norman, whose name along with the date is on stone on S side of building. (A tablet in Trelawnyd church commemorates Mary Norman of Graig Arthur, who died in 1781). The Norman family were agents/owners of the Trelogan lead mines. The name Graig Arthur probably derives from the local landmark rock Craig yr Arth, "The Bear's Stone", so named because of scratches on the stone resembling those made by a bear's claws.
A 3-storey, 3-bay Georgian farmhouse of brick with slate roof and replaced brick end stacks. The windows have stone sills and wedge lintels and comprise almost square 4-pane sashes to the upper storey, and taller 4-pane sashes to the lower and middle storeys. The central doorway, inside a modern porch, has a 6-panelled period door. Modern porch to R side. The rear elevation is asymmetrical with modern glazing. To the centre are 2 staircase windows at landing levels, with cambered heads, and a datestone beneath the upper window. To the L, at eaves level, is a square window. A small camber-headed window is to each side at first-floor level. In lower storey is a modern flat-roofed porch with a modern window to each side.

2. Craig Arthur is a superior, 3 storey, 18th century, brick-built farmhouse with date-stone (restored) inscribed 1776, believed to have been built for Hestor Norman . The Norman family were agent owners of the Trelogan lead mines. The house retains many original features, although there have been alteration and additions from the late 19th century.
The front facade has tall end-chimneys and is built in Flemish bond, while at the rear there are a series of rows of alternative headers and stretchers. The front 12-pane sash windows have a stone wedge lintel, while the rear has brick arched openings with casement windows. The datestone at rear is under the top landing window. There must have been an original porch to the central front 3-panel doorway entrance as it has the scar of a recent porch (now removed) and an arched opening, which would have been covered by a porch.
The entrance leads into a hall with moulded plaster cornice and a well-stair with turned ballasters and newels. The stair has a curved and swept-up hand-rail, which at ground-floor terminates in a spiral on a turned newel. There were originally four 6-panel doorways to all rooms from this hall and an entry to an external cellar at the rear. The living and parlour rooms to left, have blocked fireplaces and only plain decoration today. There are panelled shutters to all front sash windows, deliberately built to give the right impression, but they do not open. The kitchen to right of entrance hall retains a bead moulded joist ceiling and the lintel of a wide fireplace opening, now reduced by a later cupboard to its right side. To its left the original cupboards are all with fielded panels, one with `ogee' design to panel corners. A doorway in the gable-end retains a high semi-circular arch with 3-panel door.
The stair rises up two half landings, each with a 3-light casement window. At first-floor front there are good fireplaces to each end, one with a carved and bracketed timber surround , the other similar, but of slate, imitating marble. On the second floor a front room has an original iron fire grate with timber eared architrave.
The slate roof is supported by purlins resting on the stair partition's brick walls and common-rafters, without trusses.

A farmhouse of some status with its detached former bake/brew-house and carriage house (modernised as domestic) to right side and its walled garden with arched alcove.
