Cadw's description
Location
Situated in terraced row, a low two-storey house between the three-storey Nos 8 and 11.
History
Former pair of houses now one, probably earlier to mid C19. The Gothic shopwindow is a rare survival, though similar ones may partly survive on No 13.
Exterior
Terraced house, painted lined stucco with close-eaved slate roof and right end stack built up gable end of No 8. Two-storey, three-bay front with blank window over centre plate glass sash and recessed C20 door, the sash with slate sill. Right half has a renewed plate-glass sash to ground floor and a renewed 4-8-4-pane tripartite sash above, both with wooden sills. Left house has a square shop window with 3-light timber glazing, pointed heads to lights and a centre transom. Plate glass sash above with concrete sill.
Rear has two large C20 dormers, three tiny first floor 9-pane windows, the centre one smaller than the other two and ground floor added lean-to.
Interior
Interior not inspected.
Reason for designation
Included principally for surviving Gothic shop window, and for group value with adjacent houses.
