Cadw's description
Location
On the W side of Paynter Street some 45m N of its junction with South Road.
History
Mid to later C19 single storey cottage, part of the Orange Town development laid out on land called Lion Fields bought by Isaac Williamson of Greenhill, Pwllcrochan in 1861 to build 'comfortable cottages for respectable mechanics'. Five parallel streets: on the c. 1865 town map Mansel Street has houses only on E side, Williamson Street has scattered houses, Thomas Street is built up on both sides. West Street and Paynter Street are not laid out. Similar houses were built at Kingsbridge Cottages, Holyland Road, and are to be found in the High Street and Military Road areas of Pembroke Dock. Paynter Street is said to be named for a town councillor Dr Joshua Paynter, and has seven single storey houses on W side.
Exterior
One of a row of single storey houses. Painted stucco lined as ashlar and slate close-eaved roof with brick right end stack. A large plate glass horned sash window each side of central rectangular doorway, all with quarter-round stopped mouldings to surrounds. Four-panel door with moulded borders to upper panels, raised lower panels with rebated corners. Overlight. Slate sills.
Interior
Not inspected.
Reason for designation
Included for its special interest as one of the best examples of a single-storey house in the Orange Town development.
