The timber-framed farmhouse, which stands within a group of farm buildings was abandoned in the mid-20th century, at which time it was listed as Grade II.

[1] By 2002 the building had largely collapsed, but since 2012 a restoration programme has been started under the supervision of architect Graham Moss and drawing on the expertise of the Clwyd-Powys Archaeological Trust (CPAT).

On the outside on the ground floor the timber framing is close studded and was filled with vertical wattle and daub.

This is a jettied house of the Montgomeryshire Lobby entrance type, with herringbone work in the upper story and Close studding to the lower floor.

[7] The use of a dragon beam- a diagonal beam in jettied at the corners in the interior – seems to be slightly later, and can be seen at Plasdauon[8] in Carno and Maes Mawr at Llandinam.

The life of the Jones family and the founding of the Moriah Wesleyan Chapel at Cymdu is described in Revd O. Madoc Roberts, Cofiant y Tri Brawd ('Memoir of the Three Brothers') 1906.
