Cadw's description
Location
On the east side of Pen-y-pound and one of the varied group of historic buildings on the main north-eastern access to Abergavenny.
History
Late C18 or early C19 and probably closely contemporary with No. 11 (qv).
Exterior
Wrought iron railings, gates and overthrow with lamp bracket. Tall spike railings, swept up twice to double gates with arched spiked overthrow supporting a lamp bracket. The gates have a panel band of curlicues across the centre.
Reason for designation
Included for their special interest as part of a well preserved late C18 house and for having group value with the other listed buildings in Pen-y-pound.
