Cadw's description
Location
Detached house on the quayside to N of No 19.
History
Late C18 to early C19 quayside house, marked on 1844 tithe map. The attractive cobbled pavement in front is almost the last example of this traditional form of paving in the town.
Exterior
House, whitewashed rubble stone with slate close-eaved roof and small roughcast end stacks. Two storeys, double-fronted with roughly central door. Two 4-pane first floor windows under eaves, larger ground floor windows not aligned. Right window has right jamb aligned, and has 12-pane sash. Left window is set out to left of window above, is narrower than right window, and has plate glass sash. Ledged door between. The 3 ground floor openings have brick heads. Roof light over each first floor window. Small lean-to on right end wall. Projecting stones at left corner suggest that another house was intended to N.
Interior
Not inspected. Thought to have narrow ceiling beams and old fireplace (1978 list).
Reason for designation
Included as a small traditional house of group value with No 19.
