Farmhouse apparently rebuilt on a new site about 1830. The 1839 Tithe map shows the farm of Hen Cilgynydd on another site, but the present site though not marked as built on the map is identified as 'homestead' in the schedule. The 1831 Colby map apparently shows both similarly. Old Cilgynydd was burnt and abandoned, having been the home of James Lewis, High Sheriff in 1738. It was sold after the death of his niece in 1829. In 1839 owned by Daniel Evans with 215 acres (87 hectares). The Evans family were still owners in 1873.
Farmhouse, coursed squared rubble stone, rendered to front, with slate eaves roof and cut stone end stacks. Two storeys, L-plan, 3-window front of 12-pane sashes (except ground floor left reglazed with 4-pane sash) with stone sills. Centre panelled door and traceried overlight. Two columns and shallow cornice remain of a columned porch. Rendered right end wall. Coursed squared rubble stone left end and rear wing to left. End wall has 12-pane sash each floor and 2-window rear wing with 3 similar sashes and C20 metal door to right. Openings have tooled stone voussoirs and keystones. End chimney removed, end wall has loft window and 12-pane window with stone voussoirs, and rear is outshut with 12-pane window each floor in end wall, lower one with stone voussoirs.
