History
Early to mid C19

2 pairs of large 3-storey, 2-window houses built as single terrace, brown sandstone banded in blue lias, with slate roof and matching south end stone stack. North end stack rebuilt in brick. Each pair has 4-window range of close spaced sashes with cambered painted voussoirs and painted slate sills, 6-pane square upper windows and 12-pane first floor windows. Ground floor originally had paired centre doors with lozenge patterned overlights, incised decoration to piers and paired cornices on scrolled brackets.

Nos 46-7 have only centre pier with incised decoration, but supporting large console bracket to fascia linking 2 late C19 projecting shopwindows, that to left across whole 2-window range, that to right with recessed door. Canted sides and plate glass, overall fascia and cornice.
Reason for designation
Listed as one of the best examples in Cardigan of the banded stonework typical of St Dogmaels and to a lesser extent Cardigan in early to mid C19.
