Site Description

Plas Tirion, Bro Garmon, is a 16th century house of rubble construction with pitched slate roofs, plain gables, and tall stone stacks. The structure is F-plan (though formerly E-plan) with a projecting 3-storey gabled crosswing at the right of a 2-storey main block. There is a 3-storey gabled porch with a segmental arch and original oak studded door. There are Irregular windows with 20th century wooden-framed glazing and c.1840 recessed slate lintels with labels to otherwise mostly original openings. The south-east side has a further, single-storey gabled porch with a round-headed entrance and similar door. The building retains several original features internally, including the first-floor and attic floor boards and an oak pegged doorcase.
