Ty Gwyn Mawr
* Early to mid C19 warehouse, completed following the reclamation of Traeth Mawr. Recorded in the tithe apportionment of the parish, 1842, owned and occupied by Richard Pritchard. The house was formerly known as 'Y Warws' and was used to store corn ferried across Traeth Bach and coal was dumped into a hole 'twll glo' nearby. Both commodities would be collected by horse and cart and the warehouse was also a stopping off point for ferry passengers and an informal public house and gathering place for locals.
Occasionally, incorrectly described as a mill.
