Description
A two-storeyed, steep-gabled house with fairly tall chimney stacks and original half dormers, possibly dating from the early eighteenth century. It is said to have formerly been a vicarage or parsonage house, called Ty'n Llan. In the nineteenth century it was altered to two cottages, perhaps after a new rectory was built c.1805. It was marked on 1839 Tithe Map as Tynllan owned and occupied by Henry Griffith.
