Coed-y-gelli

Originally entered directly into hall creating inside cross-passage plan (illustrated in Fox & Raglan). Stone-flagged with fine post and panel screens partition retaining traces of original painted floral decoration, principally to the back; stepped hollow stops to chamfered head beam and ogee headed doorway to left with diagonal stops. Opposite is the chimney - replaced in C19 work, heavy beam over. N wall, beyond door into lean-to, has remains of the timber frame for a 6-light diamond-mullioned window. Winding fireplace stairs at E end to upper chamber with 3 large beams and square-framed partition over hall screen, with four-centred doorways to either end - that to right is blocked and that to left is now seen from C19 corridor. At the NEcorner is a door on to a cupboard beside the chimney (not an intended continuation of the stairs?). W room has 2 beams. Loft reached via loft of C19 wing has 5 close spaced massive collar trusses sitting on main beams, not pegged to them. Double massive purlins, diagonal ridge beam and some surviving old rafters. The most important feature of this interior is an almost certainly contemporary wall painting beneath the plaster on the wall above the hall chimney; its position here could indicate that it has been moved; stylistically it is similar to the decoration on the rear of the main screen. It is a good and well preserved example of the brocaded style typical of the period and it is possible that more may exist.
