Architecture
Architectural description from the regional heritage survey, in French:
La maison dite "manoir de Kerrien" est un édifice ayant servi de ferme à la demeure dite "château de Ker Yen". Il s'élève sur un rez-de-chaussée et un niveau de combles. Le rez-de-chaussée est percé de six fenêtres et de trois portes. La porte la plus à l'ouest est cintrée et moulurée. La deuxième, centrale, est une adjonction issue de l'église de Penhars, la dernière est simple et sans ornement. Quatre lucarnes à fronton triangulaire éclairent les combles. Chaque baie est coiffée d'une accolade moulurée. Ces éléments sont probablement des remplois d'un manoir plus ancien. L'arrière de cet édifice est crépi et comporte peu d'ouvertures. L'intérieur du logis, situé dans l'extrémité ouest de la longère, est divisé en deux espaces, chacun muni d'une cheminée. Dans la partie est se trouve une laiterie désaffectée. Autour de cet édifice se dressent des bâtiments agricoles du XIXe siècle.
