Cadw's description
Location
In a terrace at the N end of Barn Street opposite Bethesda Baptist Church.
History
Terraced house part of an early to mid C19 row of four, Nos 1-4 Spring Gardens, comprising a mirrored pair in centre and outer houses also mirrored. No 1 has been wholly altered but the rest survive, with distinctive facade divisions in long vertical panels, and cambered-headed windows with marginal glazing bars typical of the 1840s.
Exterior
Terraced house, the right half of a Regency style mirrored pair. Painted stucco with slate low-pitched close-eaved roof and brick end stacks, that on No 2 rendered. Two-storey, three-bay front to the two houses, each bay a large sunk panel. The centre bay is broader with wide blind cambered headed window over wide cambered headed opening within which are recessed the doors to Nos 2 and 3. Modern doors with overlights. The outer bays have the sunk panel carried down to the lower window-sill, not to the ground and have a cambered-headed large small-paned sash with marginal glazing bars each floor, each with sill extended right across the sunk panel.
Interior
Not inspected.
Reason for designation
Included for its special architectural interest as part of an unusual stuccoed terrace with late Regency to early Victorian detail.
