Full Record - Pennant Melangell, Trefechan, house

LocationPennant Melangell, Trefechan, house, Montgomeryshire
Grid referenceSJ 0254 2617
DescriptionTrefechan is a downhill-sited cruck-framed hall-house in origin, probably timber-framed, now stone walled and of hearth-passage plan type. When surveyed in 1974, two cruck-trusses survived, probably defining a hall of a single bay. A single sooted cruck-truss with lapped collar and tie-beam now survives embedded in the inserted chimney. An associated purlin has been re-set. The felling date range in the second quarter of the C16th lies within the expected range for upland peasant hall-houses. The associated cruck-framed barn (below) was shown to be later than the house. Survey in NMRW; dating commissioned by RCAHMW.
