This ruin is in the middle of Forestry Commission land. Locals believe it to be the remains of an old farm that predates the forestry land. The path seen passing the ruin to the right is part of St. Illtyd's Walk footpath. Unusually, a solitary Monkey Puzzle tree (Araucaria araucana) stands in what would have been the building's front garden.
