Cadw's description
Location
Near junction with Castle Street.
History
The Welsh Wesleyan Methodist Chapel occupied this site from 1824 to 1871. The present features of the street facade are presumably post 1871 but there is the possibility that the building incorporates part of the structure of the former Chapel.
Exterior
Shop with accommodation over. Colourwashed brick street facade of two storeys, three windows; slate hipped roof. On first floor, 4-pane horned sash windows, plain surrounds. On ground floor, late C19 to C20 shop front with door recessed between splayed display windows; casing of pilasters, fascia and cornice; further period door to L, under continuation of shopfront. Return elevation of stone rubble.
Reason for designation
Included in list for Group Value with adjacent listed buildings.
