Description
The Head Office and Showroom of Delcor Furniture Limited is a house built around 1830. It features a tooled stone front with tooled-and-margined quoins and dressings, while the other walls are made of rubble. The building has a Welsh slate roof and is designed in a T-plan.
The south elevation is two storeys high with five symmetrical bays. It has a plinth, a first-floor band, and an eaves cornice. There are two steps leading up to a central renewed door, which is topped by an 8-pane overlight and set in a raised surround with Tuscan pilasters and a moulded cornice. The ground floor has 20-pane sash windows, with moulded panels between the sills and plinth. The roof is hipped.
On the left side, there is a tripartite sash window and a 20-pane sash window above, both in raised stone surrounds. The right side features a 16-pane sash window in a similar surround on the first floor. The rear wing has a hip-ended roof and a reduced ridge stack.
Inside, the building has moulded cornices and panelled shutters. The open-well stair in the rear wing has stick balusters, a moulded ramped and wreathed handrail, a curtail step, and carved tread ends, along with a similar stairhead balustrade.
Originally, this building served as the house for the mine owner of the nearby colliery, which has since been removed. It later functioned as the National Coal Board pay offices for the area.
