History

Probably early C19. A small house, one of the outlying properties of the Plas Newydd estate. The Plas Newydd Estate was one of the largest estates on Anglesey, passing to the Bagenal family in 1553 and through marriage to the Bayly family in the C18. In 1812 the estate passed to Henry William, Lord Uxbridge's eldest son; Henry was created 1st Marquess of Anglesey in 1815, and his descendants inherited both estate and title. A number of improvements to the buildings of the estate followed the completion of the main house at Plas Newydd in the early C19; this property being one of the new properties built along the approach road to the mansion. Used as the Llanedwen Post Office from November 1902. The Post Office was later moved to a nearby outbuilding, finally closing in October 1970.

Exterior

Two-unit, 1½-storey house with single storey rear wing; lean-to extensions to angles. Symmetrical 2-window front with central porch. Walls and plinth of limestone rubble with rendered dressings; slate roof with projecting eaves, and octagonal brick stacks either end, set on square stone bases. Gabled dormers with plain bargeboards. Flat roofed porch with entrance through voussoir basket-arched doorway with fanlight, flanked by slightly advanced piers; lancet windows in either side. Ground floor with slightly recessed 6-pane horned sash windows and recessed wedge lintels with imitation ashlar scoring; attic storey with 6-pane sash windows in gabled dormers; single window to rear, set under eaves, 12-pane horizontal sliding sash. Single storey domestic service wing to rear with octagonal brick chimney; boiling house attached to gable, forming elongated T-plan, with 2-unit pigsty to end (roofless and with yard wall mostly removed, one feeding trough in place).

Kitchen to rear, also retaining boarded door, and slate shelving in pantry and scullery. The boiling house beyond is 2-bays with collared truss, sawn timbers and torching; flag floor.
