Description
A farmstead or house site named as Glonc, shown on the OS 6" 1891 and 1963 maps, which may include traditional farm buildings. (HER)

A small farmstead represented by a single range of rubble stone buildings including a small house and a farm building aligned south-west/north-east on a natural terrace in the lee of a steep rock outcrop. The house to the south-west has a single internal division. A possible doorway can be seen to the south-west of the south-east facing elevation. A possible collapsed fireplace and chimney can be seen within the north-east facing gable which also forms the south-west end of the farm building. Part of the north-east facing gable to the north survives to a height of 2.5m. The remaining collapsed walls vary from between 0.5m and 1m. The building itself is roughly 5m by 7m. No other internal features could be seen.
The farm building to the north-east is roughly 10m by 4m with walls surviving to a height of between 0.75m and 0.3m. The possible remains of a corrugated iron roof can be seen in the interior. The function of the building is unclear.
An abandoned sheep dipping pool possibly re-using some stone from the house site can be seen 10m to the north of the farm building. (CPAT Tir Gofal assessment, 2003)

Largely as described above. Overall dimensions 28m NE/SW by up to 6m wide.
