Cadw's description
Location
Situated on the main commercial street which runs from south-east to north-west across Abergavenny.
History
Built in the early C19, probably together with No. 67 adjoining, and has no visible evidence of earlier origin, C20 shopfront. It is currently undergoing major repairs with possible feature replacement.
Exterior
Plain rendered frontage, probably over brick, Welsh slate roof. Double depth plan. Three storeys, three windows. Altered shopfront with doorway to left. The windows above were hidden at resurvey, but are probably 8 over 8 pane sashes on the first floor and 4 over 8 on the second floor, possibly all with keyed heads as on No. 67. Second floor and eaves bands, plain roof.
Rear elevation both plain and altered.
Interior
Interior not available at resurvey.
Reason for designation
Included for its special interest as an early/mid C19 frontage with definite character that has strong group value with other historic buildings in the centre of Abergavenny.
