Cadw's description
Location
Set into a row of frontages nbear the S end of the street.
History
Probably built in the early C19 and shown on the 1834 town plan, but the block is first shown in its present subdivided form on the 1888 Ordnance Survey. The external detail dates from its later C19 subdivision.
Reason for designation
Listed for its good later C19 character in an earlier structure, and for its contribution to the historic integrity of the walled town.
