Cadw's description
Location
Fronting the street on the corner of Chapel Street.
History
Built in the 2nd half of the C19 and shown on the 1889 Ordnance Survey.
Exterior
A late-Georgian style 3-storey double-fronted house of cream pebble-dashed front on a smooth-rendered plinth painted green, slate roof and pebble-dashed stack to the L. The house shares its eaves line with Nos 19-25, but has a lower ridge, indicating that it was not part of a larger development. The central entrance has a half-glazed panel door. Replacement windows have segmental heads and thin rendered surrounds painted green. Lower and middle storeys have 12-pane hornless sashes, the upper storey shorter 9-pane hornless sashes. The L gable end has a cast-iron street sign to Chapel Street, and on the L side 2 superimposed 2-light small-pane casements to a rear outshut.
Interior
Not inspected.
Reason for designation
Listed for its special architectural interest as a C19 town house of definite character in a prominent location on the corner of Chapel Street, and for its contribution to the historical townscape.
