Full Record - Pennant Melangell, Blaen-y-cwm, cross-wing

LocationPennant Melangell, Blaen-y-cwm, cross-wing, Montgomeryshire
Grid referenceSJ 0173 2697
DescriptionA complex, multi-period site. (a) A storeyed cruck-framed solar cross wing is presumed to have been added to an earlier down-slope hall range; the crucks and ceiling beams were found to be contemporary. (b) The hall was then replaced by a range with an outer parlour with fine ovolo-moulded detail. To the west of this range is a cruck-framed barn/byre. The end cruck truss produced a felling date of 1634/5 (c), but a number of earlier crucks (not obviously domestic in origin) were used in the first three bays of the building (d). This district of upland Montgomeryshire seems to have favoured crucks at a relatively late date, as the cross wing crucks are the latest domestic crucks so far identified, while that in the barn is the latest agricultural one. Detailed description in NMRW. Dating commissioned by RCAHMW.
