History

Mid-late C19 pigsties, part of a planned farmstead group. Bodcoll was a farm on the Hafod estate, and it is likely that these buildings were provided by the estate.

Exterior

Small pigsty. Roughly coursed and squared local stone with slate roof with overhanging verges. Single storeyed range with asymmetrical roof (lower eaves to pen-side), and two walled pens. The pen walls have entrances towards centre and rough stone-on-end copings, and there is a pitched stone walkway outside them.

Reasons for Listing

Listed as typical mid C19 pigsties which form part of an exceptionally well-preserved planned farmstead group.
