This single-storey tollhouse is located in the small hamlet of Tan-y-Lôn, Gwynedd, Wales. It was designed by Thomas Telford during his commission to rebuild and renew the road from Llandegai to Conwy.

The tollhouse retains the recess for the toll board on the wall facing the road, but the toll board itself is no longer present. The tollhouse does however retain a slate milestone above the window on the North-west wall which reads 'Llanllechid 2½m'.

The tollhouse is currently a private residence.
