Numbers 8, and 8A, Pentre are a pair of 18/19th century, stone-built, 2-storey cottages, which retain details of a former circa 1600, box-framed house, probably of 2-units. The houses were further extended in the late 20th century. Internally no.8 (west-end) retains a very fine cross-beam ceiling with chamfered joists. It retains part of 3-tier, square panel, box framed walling to the north wall, and has a collar and tie-beam roof-truss with mortices for wind-braces. It is built lying down the slope, and intriguingly across the bank of Offas Dyke. By the late 19th century it was part of the Leighton Estate.
